a) false.
the reason is, if the satellite revolve outside the earth atmosphere then we can make its path free of frictional losses. also for geosynchronous satellites, their height is fixed at 35.8 km from earth surface.
b) True
so that its gravitational force must balanced by centripetal force.

Comment before rate in case any doubt, will reply for sure.. goodluck

What is the ratio of the orbital velocities of two satellites, each in circular orbit around Earth, given that satellite A orbits 2.90 times as far from Earth’s center of gravity as satellite B? Give your answer in terms of B’s velocity to A’s velocity.
Two satellites are in circular orbits around the earth. The orbit for satellite A is at a height of 502 km above the earth’s surface, while that for satellite B is at a height of 747 km. Find the orbital speed for (a) satellite A and (b) satellite B.
Two satellites are in circular orbits around the earth. The orbit for satellite A is at a height of 460 km above the earth’s surface, while that for satellite B is at a height of 774 km. Find the orbital speed for (a) satellite A and (b) satellite B.
Two satellites are in circular orbits around the earth. The orbit for satellite A is at a height of 364 km above the earth's surface, while that for satellite B is at a height of 880. km. Find the orbital speed for satellite A and satellite B. (a) VA = (b) VB =
two satellites, one lighter and the other twice as massive, describe different orbits around the earth, the lighter one going on an orbit of radius twice the radius of the heavier one, 2m, r, 2r. 1.) consider one single satellite, say the lighter one. write down the equation for the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on this satellite. 2.) write down Newton second law for this satellite to go in a circular orbit. 3.) determine the equation for the...
For communications purposes, satellites are typically placed in a circular geosynchronous orbit. If the orbit is in the equatorial plane of the Earth, it is called geostationary. A satellite’s orbital speed in a geostationary orbit is set to match the angular velocity Ωe of the rotating Earth (with mass M), so that as seen from the Earth the satellite is stationary above a fixed point on the Equator. For a satellite of mass m in a geostationary circular orbit then...

10. Two satellites are in circular orbits around a planet that has radius 9.00 × 106 m. One satellite has mass 68.0 kg, orbital radius 5.00 × 107 m, and orbital speed 4800 m/s. The second satellite has mass 84.0 kg and orbital radius 3.00 × 107 m. what is the orbital spced of this second satel!lite? 1 International Space Station. The International Space Station makes 15.65 revolutions per day in its orbit around the earth. Assuming a circular orbit,...
Many communication satellites are placed in a circular orbit around the Earth at a radius where the period (the time to go around the Earth once) is 24 hours. If the satellite is above some point on the equator, it stays above that point as the Earth rotates, so that as viewed from the rotating Earth the satellite appears to be motionless. That is why you see dish antennas pointing at a "fixed" point in space. (a) Calculate the radius...
A satellite is put into orbit around the earth first by being carried on a rocket that climbes vertically to h = 217 km from the earth\'s surface and then being propelled at a velocity of v = 9.65 km/s. This initial velocity is perpendicular to the position vector from the earth\'s center to the satellite. What is the maximum distance from the earth\'s center the satellite will reach with a closed orbit around the earth?
