Communications satellites are placed in a circular orbit where they stay directly over a fixed point on the equator as the earth rotates. these are called geosynchronous orbits. the radius of the earth is 6.37 * 106 m, and the altitude of a geosynchronous orbit is 3.58 * 107 m 1â22,000 miles2. what are (a) the speed and (b) the magnitude of the acceleration of a satellite in a geosynchronous orbit?

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
