Landing Vessel
Launch Vehicle
Long Vision
Large Volt

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

L.V - What does it stand for?

Well, it stands for Launch Vehicle.

WELL, Where is it used?

Have you heard about many satellites launching vehicles like PSLV, GSLV, ASLV- What does this stand for?

These stand for:-

PSLV:- Polar Satellite Launch vehicle

• PSLV was first used by foreign countries but then it was also invented in India for launching IRS satellites ( Indian Remote sensing satellites)
• PSLV revolves around Polar Orbit , which is diagonal towards the Axis of the Earth
• Before 1993 it failed to launch but in 1994 its launch was successful.
• It is a fourth stage (PS4) satellite that means it has four main parts -

1. First there are motors which are not considered in the PS4
2. Now PS1 uses solid fuel
3. PS2 used liquid fuel
4. PS3 uses Solid Fuel
5. PS4 uses liquid fuels

• This was used to launch Mangalyaan in 2014 which was first satellite by any country to be directly placed in Earth's Orbit. The picture of Mangalyaan can be seen at the back side of 2000 currency note as a honour to ISRO.
• India , USA  Russia are the one who successfully launched them
• Even China failed in 2017 to mark it's mission.

ASLV :-Augmented Satellite Launch Vehicle

• This satellite was used to place the communication satellite
• This was not indigenous that means this was not made in India first
• This was launched to place the communication satellites.

GSLV:-  Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle

• This Satellite is  divided in two parts

• GSLV Mk II
• GSLV Mk III
• This was also used to launch satellites and First mission was on 2001 which was successful
• This is indigenous ie made in India
• GSLV Mk III was used to launch Chandrayaan 2 in 2019

Aryabhatta was the first satellite launched by ISRO.

• Sounding in Science means measurement. Sounding Rockets were first used for placing Communication and Transmission Satellites in Earth's Orbit.
• This was not Made on India
• First our satellites were transferred to countries like France to get launched in LEO (Low Earth Orbit).

Answer 2

In abbreviations such as ASLV, PSLV, GSLV, the letters 'LV' stand for Launch Vehicle.

• ASLV stands for Augmented/Advanced Satellite Launch Vehicle.

• PSLV stands for Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle.

• GSLV stands for Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle.

• A launch vehicle refers to a carrier rocket that helps to carry satellites or spacecrafts to the orbit of the Earth or to space.

• A launch system usually has the launch pad, vehicle, vehicle assembly and other important parts required for the launch.
