C is the correct answer because ; it period has thesame with that of the earth for it to remain in the location for which it was launched. Take for example, the satellite was launched in Nigeria, it tis period is more than that of the earth, it will leave Nigerian bounderies but if the period is less than that of the earth, ti also does the same thing. but
if its period is equal to that of the earth, it remains in the Nigerian bounderies
