Note:
The equatorial diameter of the earth is 12,756 km.
Therefore the equatorial radius is
r = 12756/2 = 6378 km.

The angular velocity of the earth is 
ω = (2π radians)/(24 hours) = 0.2618 rad/h

The tangential velocity of a person at the equator is
v = rω
   = (6378 km)*( 0.2618  rad/h)
   =  1670 km/h

Answer: 1670 km/h

Which force diagram accurately represents a satellite in orbit around Earth?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

First choice

Explanation:

A satellite in orbit around Earth experiences only one force: the gravitational attraction exerted by the Earth on it. This force is labelled with F_g. In space, there are no other forces acting on the satellite.

The force of gravity acts as centripetal force, "pulling" the satellite towards the centre of its circular orbit. The inertia of the satellite (which has an initial velocity) tends to keep it moving straight, so the combination of these two effects (inertia and force of gravity) results into the circular motion of the satellite.

Both the electrical force and the gravitational force between two objects share which relationship?
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

B. They are inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is given by:

F_G = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the distance between the two objects

While the electrical force is given by

F_E = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the charges of the two objects

r is the distance between the two objects

As we see from the two equations, both forces are inversely proportional to the square of the distance, so the correct option is

B. They are inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
