Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β Kinetics of Particles: Problem 3_230
3/230 A synchronous satellite is one whose velocity in its circular orbit allows it to remain above the same position on the surface of the rotating earth. Calculate the required distance H of the satellite above the surface of the earth. Locate the position of the orbital plane of the satellite and calculate the angular range $\beta$ of longitude on the surface of the earth for which there is a direct line of sight to the satellite.
