The average speed of rotation at the equator is _______________Km. per hour

fredd [130]

Answer:

The earth rotates once every 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.09053 seconds, called the sidereal period, and its circumference is roughly 40,075 kilometers. Thus, the surface of the earth at the equator moves at a speed of 460 meters per second--or roughly 1,000 miles per hour.

how big is the sun on a 1 to 10 billion scale? How big is the earth in the same scale? Covert answers to cm. Assume Sun’s radius

galben [10]

Answer:

sun is bigger than earth is 13.9 cm

Explanation:

given data

radius of sun = 700,000 km

radius of earth = 6500 km

to find out

how big is the sun

solution

we know here

scale 1 to 10 billion is

scale = $\frac{1}{10*10^9}$

so here

we know that scaled diameter = actual diameter × scale .................1

so for earth

scaled diameter of earth = 2 × 6500 × $\frac{1}{10*10^9}$

scaled diameter of earth = 1.3 × $10^{-6}$

and

scaled diameter of sun = 2 × 700,000 × $\frac{1}{10*10^9}$

scaled diameter of sun = 1.4 × $10^{-4}$

sun is bigger than earth is 1.4 × $10^{-4}$ - 1.3 × $10^{-6}$

sun is bigger than earth is 0.000139 = 13.9 cm
