For satellites to be in synchronous orbits with earth


For satellites to be in synchronous orbits with Earth, should their linear (tangential) velocities, or their angular velocities be equal to Earth's surface value? Provide an example of where you might find angular velocities to be the same while tangential velocities are different, and vice versa. Clearly describe each situation.
