The direction of orbit in the same direction of earth rotation is call

1.	The direction of orbit in the same direction of earth rotation is called ______(a) Retrograde(b) Posigrade(c) Perigee(d) Apogee
Answer» Correct option is (b) Posigrade For explanation: The direction of satellite rotation may be either in the same direction as the earth’s rotation or against the direction of earth’s rotation. In the former case, the orbit is said to be posigrade, and in the latter case, retrograde. Most orbits are posigrade.
