Q1:

Rotation of a geosynchronous satellite means its

A drift from stationary position

B wobbling

C three-axis stabilization

D three-dimensional stabilization

ANS:B - wobbling

Geostationary orbits fall in the same category as geosynchronous orbits, but it's parked over the equator. While the geostationary orbit lies on the same plane as the equator, the geosynchronous satellites has a different inclination. This is the key difference between the two types of orbits.
