A geostationary satellite means that the satellite remains stationary with respect to the motion of the earth Or the relative velocity between the earth and the satellite is zero.
Thus, it is known that a geostationary satellite completes one revolution in a day.
∴ 360° in 24 hours
and has angular velocity of
ω = 360/24
= 15 degrees per hour
OR
2π/24
= π/12 radians per hour
