Question

Remote imaging satellites are placed in geostationary orbit. This statement is

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Answer is A.
Geostationary satellites are positioned at an height above the Earth about $36,000km$. At this height, they rotate around the Earth at the same speed as the Earth rotates around its axis, so in effect remaining stationary above a point on the Earth (normally directly overhead the equator).
As they remain stationary, they are ideal for use as communications satellites and also for remote imaging as they can repeatedly scan the same points on the Earth beneath them.
Their great height is that they can view the whole Earth disk below them, rather than a small subsection, and they can scan the same area very frequently.
Hence, the statement is true.
