Consider the following statements regarding Geostationary Orbit:
Which of the statements given above is/are NOT CORRECT?
Solution (a)
Satellites in Geostationary Orbit circle Earth from West to East following Earth’s rotation.
Hence Statement 1 is incorrect.
Geostationary Orbit is used by satellites that need to stay constantly above one particular place over Earth, such as telecommunication satellites.
Hence Statement 2 is correct.

Consider the following statements Geosynchronous Orbit:
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Solution (a)
A spacecraft in Geosynchronous Orbit appears to remain above Earth at a constant longitude.
Hence Statement 1 is correct.
Geostationary orbit can be considered as a specific case of Geosynchronous Orbit. Geostationary orbit (GEO) is an orbit above Earth’s equator, whereas Geosynchronous Orbit is any orbit with a period equal to Earth’s rotation period.
Hence Statement 2 is incorrect.

Consider the following statements:
Which of the statements given above is/are NOT CORRECT?
Solution (d)
Satellites in polar orbits usually travel past Earth from north to south rather than from west to east, passing roughly over Earth’s poles.
Hence Statement 1 is correct.
Satellites in Sun-synchronous orbit are synchronised to be in the same fixed position relative to the Sun.
Hence Statement 2 is correct.

Consider the following statements:
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Solution (c)
Eccentricity is a measure of how circular or elliptical an orbit is.
Hence Statement 1 is correct.
Inclination is the angular distance of the orbital plane from the plane of the planet’s equator.
Nodes are points where an orbit crosses a reference plane, such as the ecliptic or the celestial equator.
Hence Statement 2 is correct.

Which of these discoveries is a landmark evidence of Big Bang theory?
Solution (c)
Solution (c)
With reference to neutrinos, Consider the following statements:
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Solution (d)
Three types or “flavours” of neutrino exist: the electron neutrino, the muon neutrino and the tau neutrino.
Hence Statement 1 is incorrect.
Neutrino has a very tiny mass. It interacts very weakly with other matter particles and so weak that every second trillions of neutrinos fall on us and pass through our bodies unnoticed.
Hence Statement 2 is incorrect.
Neutrinos come from the sun (solar neutrinos) and other stars, cosmic rays that come from beyond the solar system, and from the Big Bang
Hence Statement 3 is correct.
