The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s².  That means that
an object falling under the influence of gravity will move 9.8 m/s
faster than it was moving a second earlier.

Falling from rest, it will be moving 9.8 m/s after the first second,
and 19.6 m/s after the 2nd second.

The height from which it fell doesn't matter.

Calculat the acceleration of a person at latitude<br> 40degreesowing to the rotation of the earth.
beks73 [17]

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

Discuss how does a Van de Graaff generator works?​
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

How does a Van de Graaff generator works?

A Van de Graaff generator pulls electrons from the Earth, moves them along a belt and stores them on the large sphere. These electrons repel each other and try to get as far away from each other as possible, spreading out on the surface of the sphere. ... It provides a convenient path for electrons to move to the ground.

While studying bacterial cells, scientists measure the lengths of the cells in one colony. The chart shows their data.
Hitman42 [59]

The scientists should best deal with this measurement by stating that there was an error during measuring and collect further data.
