In addition to acceleration of gravity we experience centrifugal acceleration away from the axis of rotation of the earth. this additional acceleration has value ac = r w^2 where w = angular velocity and r is distance from your spot on earth to the earth's axis of rotation so r = R cos(l) where l = 60 deg is the lattitude and R the earth's radius and w = 1 / (24hr x 3600sec/hr)
<span>now you look up R and calculate ac then you combine the centrifugal acc. vector ac with the gravitational acceleration vector ag = G Me/R^2 to get effective ag' = ag -</span>
Answer:
E. Student 1 is correct, because as θ is increased, h is the same.
Explanation:
Here we have the object of a certain mass falling under gravity so the force acting on the it will depend on mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity.
Mathematically:

As we know that the work done is evaluated as the force applied on a body and the displacement of the body in the direction of the force.
And for work we have:

where:
displacement of the object
angle between the force and displacement vectors
Given that the height of the object is same in each trail of falling object under the gravity be it a free-fall or the incline plane.
- In case of free-fall the angle between the force is and the displacement is zero.
- In case when the body moves along the inclined plane the force applied by the gravity is same because it depends upon the mass of the object. And the net displacement in the direction of the gravitational force is the height of the object which is constant in both the cases.
So, the work done by the gravitational force is same in the two cases.

Explanation:
The Stefan-Boltzmann law establishes that a black body (an ideal body that absorbs or emits all the radiation that incides on it) "emits thermal radiation with a total hemispheric emissive power proportional to the fourth power of its temperature":
(1)
Where:
is the energy radiated by a blackbody radiator per second, per unit area (in Watts). Knowing 
is the Stefan-Boltzmann's constant.
is the Surface area of the body
is the effective temperature of the body (its surface absolute temperature) in Kelvin.
However, there is no ideal black body (ideal radiator) although the radiation of stars like our Sun is quite close. So, in the case of this body, we will use the Stefan-Boltzmann law for real radiator bodies:
(2)
Where
is the body's emissivity
(the value we want to find)
Isolating
from (2):
(3)
Solving:
(4)
Finally:
(5) This is the body's emissivity
Ideal M.A. is 1 I.e, load =effort
