At ground level g is 9.8m/s^2. Suppose the earth started to increase its angular velocity. How long would a day be when people o

n the equator were just 'thrown off'? Why is the expression 'thrown off' a bad one ?

Hello there.
<span>
At ground level g is 9.8m/s^2. Suppose the earth started to increase its angular velocity. How long would a day be when people on the equator were just 'thrown off'? Why is the expression 'thrown off' a bad one ?

People would not be thrown off.

Let s = rate of rotation 
<span>Let r = radius of earth = 6,400km </span>
<span>Then solving (s^2) r = g will give the desired rate, from which length of day is inferred. </span>
<span>People would not be thrown off. They would simply move eastward in a straight line while the curved surface of earth fell away from beneath them.</span>

frez [133]

The acceleration of gravity is

9.8 m/s^2 down.

When an object falls out of a hand, its speed after 1.8s is

(9.8)x(1.8) = 17.6 m/s down.

It doesn't matter what it is, how much it weighs, or how high it was dropped from.

If it's more than 17.6 m/s, then this happened on a different, bigger planet.

If it's less than 17.6 m/s, then it must have hit something on the way down, like some air or something.

An object of known mass M with speed v0 travels toward a wall. The object collides with it and bounces away from the wall in the
Bingel [31]

Neither side of the equation may be used because there are too many unknown quantities before, during, and after the collision

Explanation:

The impulse theorem states that the change in momentum of an object is equal to the impulse, which is the product between the average force applied and the duration of the collision:

\Delta p = F \Delta t

where

\Delta p is the change in momentum

F is the average force

\Delta t is the duration of the collision

In this problem, neither side of the equation can be used to measure the change in momentum. In fact:

- The change in momentum (left side) is given by

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

Here the final velocity is not known, so it's not possible to use this side of the equation

- The impulse (right side) is given by

F\Delta t

here the average force is known, however the duration of the collision is not known, so it's not possible to use this side of the equation.

1. Describe what happens to the gravitational when you increase mass versus when you
Rudik [331]

Answer: if the mass is doubled, the force of gravity is doubled, meaning it decreases. If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity is 1/4 as strong as before
