Answer:
v = 7121.3 m/s
Explanation:
As we know that the centripetal force for the space shuttle is due to gravitational force of earth due to which it will rotate in circular path with constant speed
so here we will have
here we know that
r = orbital radius = 6370 km + 1482 km
also we know that
now we will have
Answer:
you can see it in the picture
Any object that is spherical in shape would best represent a true scale model of the shape of the Earth. Examples are ping pong balls, billiard balls, marble and other smooth spherical objects. The shape of the Earth is called the oblate spheroid. The "oblate" would refer to an oblong shape and "spheroid" would refer to an almost spherical shape. The earth has on almost spherical shape and has a slightly oblong appearance. The diameter from the South pole to the north pole was measured to have a value of 12714 km while the diameter of the equator is approximately 12756 km. As you can see, the values are not equal. This makes the earth not a perfect sphere.
Protons and neutrons are packed together in a very small region called nucleus. Protons are positively charged and we know that like charges repel. Then how is it that protons are not repelling each other and flying away from nucleus?
You may think that gravitational force is holding all the protons together but it is not so. Gravitational force is many times weaker than repulsive force.
It is actually strong force which holds proton together. At this short distance, strong force comes into play and is several times stronger than the repulsive force.
Answer: The spinning of Earth's outer core causes the lithosphere to break into individual plates and collide with each other.
Earth's surface forms because of this reason:
The spinning of Earth's outer core causes the lithosphere to break into individual plates and collide with each other.
