<span>The solution is: Earth circumference is 2*pi*r=25,130 miles 25,130 miles corresponds to 360Âş, so 5,000 miles corresponds to 360*5000/25130 = 71,6Âş 71,6Âş is equivalent to 71,6*2pi/360=1,25 radians Angular velocity is 1,25/9=0,139 rad/h</span>

The correct answer to the question is: A) miles/hour and B) metre/ second.

EXPLANATION:

Before answering this question, first we have to understand speed.

The speed of a body is defined as the rate of distance travelled or the distance travelled by a body per unit time.

Hence, it is a derived quantity which is obtained from distance and time.

The unit of distance can be metre, miles, and the unit of time can be second, minutes or hour.

As speed is the distance covered per unit time, the perfect units will be miles/hour and metre/second.

Hence, the correct options are first and second.
