Answer:
a. TRUE
Explanation:
When a satellite is launched to orbit around earth, it has to produce its own artificial gravity by performing rotations. The frequency of this rotation is given by the following formula:
f = √[ac/4πR²]
where,
f = frequency
ac = centripetal acceleration
R = Radius of the satellite
Therefore, it is clear from this formula that the frequency of rotation of the satellite is independent of its height above the surface of earth. So, the correct option is:
a. TRUE
