Answer:

The shape of satellite which is in the shape of parabola, opening upwards is, x^2=12 y, having vertex (0,0).

Comparing with general equation of parabola

x^2=4 a y , having vertex (0,0) and focus (0,a).

Comparing the two above equation of parabola

4 a y = 12 y

4 a = 12

a=3

So, focus of the satellite which is in the shape of parabola=(0,3)
