Uses of satellites Communications Communications Spying (remote sensing) Spying (remote sensing) Forecasting the weather Forecasting the weather Global Positioning (GPS ) Global Positioning (GPS ) Scientific research Scientific research

Uses of satellites For each use of satellite find out Different uses for them Different uses for them How high above the earth they orbit How high above the earth they orbit How long their orbit lasts How long their orbit lasts The name of one example The name of one example

Communications TV signals TV signals Phone signals Phone signals Radio signals Radio signals Communications satellites are in a GEOSTATIONARY orbit.

Geostationary orbits 1. How long does a geostationary satellite take to complete one orbit? 2. A geostationary orbit has a radius of 42100km. How long, in km, is one orbit? (Hint: circumference of a circle = 2 x π x r) 3. How fast is a geostationary satellite travelling? (Hint: speed = distance ÷ time)

Weather forecasting Looking at weather patterns Looking at weather patterns In order to predict the weather we must see large sections of the globe in a small time. To do this weather forecasting satellites are in a POLAR orbit.

Polar orbits 1. About how long does a weather satellite take to complete one orbit? 2. A polar orbit has a radius of about 500km. How long, in km, is one orbit? (Hint: circumference of a circle = 2 x π x r) 3. How fast is a polar orbiting satellite travelling? (Hint: speed = distance ÷ time) 4. A polar orbiting satellites actually has to travel at about 27000km/h. Why do you think they travel so fast?
