The actual satellite orbit that is chosen will depend on factors including its function, and the area it is to serve. In some instances the satellite orbit may be as low as 100 miles (160 km) for a Low Earth Orbit LEO, whereas others may be over 22 000 miles (36000 km) high as in the case of a GEostationary Orbit GEO.or a very low orbit of around 100 miles a velocity of about 17500 miles per hour is needed and this means that the satellite will orbit the Earth in about 90 minutes. At an altitude of 22 000 miles a velocity of just less than 7000 miles per hour is needed giving an orbit time of about 24 hours.
hyÂ·droÂ·chlorÂ·ide. A compound formed by the addition of a hydrochloric acid molecule to a basic moiety on the substance, for example, guanine hydrochloride, glycine hydrochloride. /hyÂ·droÂ·chloÂ·ride/ (-klorÂ´Ä«d) a salt of hydrochloric acid.
A: Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) is a diuretic (water pill) that is used to treat edema (fluid retention) that is caused by congestive heart failure, kidney disorders and several other reasons. HCTZ is also used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure).ydrochlorothiazide may also be prescribed to treat calcium-containing kidney stones because it decreases the amount of calcium excreted by the kidneys in the urine, thus reducing the amount of calcium available to form stones.
