The advantage of a north-south oriented orbit is that the satellite:
can remain over one location
can fly over the entire earth
can transmit simultaneously over the entire earth
is easier to place in orbit

the advantage of a synchronous orbit is that the satellite can:

fly over the entire earth
transmit over the entire earth
receive continuous signals from a ground transmitter
all of the above

remote sensing satellites are restricted for exclusive use by the u. s. government.
true
false

a satellite in orbit is continuously falling toward the earth's surface.
true
false

1. can remain over one location

2. all of the above

3. False

4. True

Explanation:

As the north-south satellites have a fixed polar Orbit they tend to revolve and remains around a similar path and follow the durainal orbit of rotation around the earth every and each day. A synchronous orbit is one that is found at a period equal to that of the rotation of the earth and is in the same direction of rotation of the body. And thus they can be both circular and receive continuous signals from the ground. As the law of gravity states that each and every object that has a law of the inertia through which its held close to the surface of the earth, and this la helps to determine the satellite acceleration towards the earth.
