It would have to be 36,719 Km high in order to be to be in geosynchronous orbit.
To find the answer, we need to know about the third law of Kepler.
<h3>What's the Kepler's third law?</h3>
- It states that the square of the time period of orbiting planet or satellite is directly proportional to the cube of the radius of the orbit.
- Mathematically, T²∝a³
<h3>What's the radius of geosynchronous orbit, if the time period and altitude of ISS are 90 minutes and 409 km respectively?</h3>
- The time period of geosynchronous orbit is 24 hours or 1440 minutes.
- As the Earth's radius is 6371 Km, so radius of the ISS orbit= 6371km + 409 km = 6780km.
- If T1 and T2 are time period of geosynchronous orbit and ISS orbit respectively, a1 and a2 are radius of geosynchronous orbit and ISS orbit, as per third law of Kepler, (T1/T2)² = (a1/a2)³
- a1= (T1/T2)⅔×a2
= (1440/90)⅔×6780
= 43,090 km
- Altitude of geosynchronous orbit = 43,090 - 6371= 36,719 km
Thus, we can conclude that the altitude of geosynchronous orbit is 36,719km.
