What deos it mean for a satellite to be in geosynchronous orbit

Geography
1 answer:
slega [8]3 years ago
6 0
It means that the satellite's orbital period is equal to the Earth's rotation period ... roughly 23 hours 56 minutes 4 seconds ... so that the satellite always stays over the same longitude.

IF that satellite's orbit has also been carefully placed over the equator, THEN the satellite is in a 'geostationary' orbit. It appears motionless in the sky, and can be used to sell 900 channels of TV to people with little dishes that they never need to move.

Oque o autor quis dizer com "o novo modelo de civilização a que estamos presenciando"
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

O autor que dizer que a civilização esta sendo modelada e modificada de forma que, o modelo de civilização que conhecemos será desconsiderado e dará lugar a um modelo atualizado.

Explanation:

Quando o autor fala "o novo modelo de civilização a que estamos presenciando", significa que existem fatores externos que estão modificando e atualizando a civilização que conhecemos, trazendo novos conceitos e costumes, remodelando a sociedade. Isso faz com que o conceito que tinhamos de civilização fique desatualizado e que um novo modelo esteja sendo estabelecido e que esse novo modelo se tornará a base da nova civilização.
