Answer:

acceleration of person = 9.77 m/s²

Explanation:

given data

latitude = 40 degree

to find out

Calculate the acceleration of a person

solution

we know that here 40 degree = 0.698 rad

so

acceleration of person = g - ω²R    ...............1

and 1 rotation complete in 24 hours = 360 degree

here g is 9.81

so we know Earth angular speed ω = 7.27 × 10^{-5} rad/s and R is earth radius that is 6.37 × 10^{6} m

so

put here value in equation 1 we get

acceleration of person = g - ω²R

acceleration of person = 9.81 - (7.27 × 10^{-5})² × 6.37 × 10^{6}

acceleration of person = 9.77 m/s²

Which property of light is a constant in a vacuum?
faust18 [17]

Answer:

La velocidad de la luz en el vacío es una constante universal con el valor de 299 792 458 m/s (186 282,397 mi/s),​​aunque suele aproximarse a 3·108 m/s. Se simboliza con la letra c, proveniente del latín celéritās (en español, celeridad o rapidez).

¿Cuál es la consecuencia que a velocidad de la luz sea constante?

Respuesta. En modificaciones del vacío más sutiles, como espacios curvos, efecto Casimir, poblaciones térmicas o presencia de campos externos, la velocidad de la luz depende de la densidad de energía de ese vacío.

How does the ocean influence climate?
Mazyrski [523]
<span>Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.</span>

8. Il An 8.00 kg package in a mail-sorting room slides 2.00 m down a
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Normal force = m g cos 53 = 8 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * cos 53 = 47.1823 N

  no work is done by this force

Force friction = coeff friction * force normal = .4 * 47.1823 = 7.55 N

   work of friction = 7.55 * 2 m = 15.1 j

Force Downplane = mg sin 53 = 62.61  N

    work = 62.61 * 2 = 125.22 j

Net Force downplane =   force downplane - force friction = 55.06 N

net Work = force * distance = 55.06 N * 2 M = 110.12 j
