विकल्प

• = 20,000 km

• = 27,000 km

• < 30,780 km

• > 35,780 km

Answer 1

Height of the High earth orbit from the surface of the earth is > 35,780 km.

Explanation:

If the height of the satellite’s orbit above the earth’s surface is greater than or equal to 35780 km, the orbit is called High earth Orbit. As we will see in the next solved example, a satellite revolving in an orbit 35780 km above the earth’s surface, will take around 24 hours to complete one revolution.
