A satellite in equatorial plane is rotating in the direction of earth's rotation with time interval between its two consecutive appearence over head of an observer as time period of rotation of the earth, `T_(E)`. What is the time period of the satellite?

Derive the time period of satellite orbiting the Earth.

If the time period of a satellite T_(S) is different from that of earth's rotation T_(E) and the satellite is moving in the direction of earth's rotation, show that the time interval between two successive appearances of the satellite overhead is given by ltbRgt (1)/(T) = (1)/(T_(S)) ~ (1)/(T_(E)) What will happen to this interval if T_(S) = T_(E)

Satellite having the same orbital period as the period of rotation of the Earth about its own axis is known as :
