Question

It is necessary that the plane of the orbit of a satellite must contain the center of the Earth.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Gravitation:

1. Yes, it is necessary for a satellite's plane to pass through the earth's center.
2. Unless it gets taken by another body, such as the sun, after leaving Earth's orbit.
3. An orbit revolves around a mass center (or the barycenter formed by two masses).
4. The plane intersects the mass center in both cases.

Therefore the statement is true.
