Answer:False
Explanation:The Earth rotates faster at the equator than at the poles.
Distance is 50 km
Displacement is 10 km
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Distance toward south, x = 25 km
Distance towards west, y = 10 km
Distance towards north, z = 15 km
(a) Total distance, D = ?
Total distance, D = x + y + z
D = 25 + 10 + 15
D = 50km
(b) Displacement, d = ?
Displacement = final position - initial position
= 10 - 0 km
= 10km
Translating the first sentence into equation we get, t = k(1/h)
where t is time in seconds, k is the constant and h is the horsepower. Substituting
the values in the equation we have, 12s = k(1/200) we have a k = 2400 seconds –
hp. To get the time at 240 hp we use the equation above and the constant, we
get, t = (2400 seconds-hp)(1/240hp) t = 10seconds.
Ptolemy believed in the theory that the earth was the center of the universe (geocentric) and it is not moving in the center while Copernicus later proposed otherwise, in his heliocentric theory he believed that the sun was the center of the universe but it was not moving. Both theories were influenced by their observation of how the light shade from the sun changes during the day, and also through observation of other celestial bodies whose light intensity changes which made them arrived to the conclusion that they are not equidistant nor stationary with respect to earth.
Answer:
So the conclusion is that in presence of air net force acting downward reduces for feather and hence falls slower than coin. But in absence of air resistance, net downward force is just equal to force due to gravity which is same for both coin and feather and hence they fall down at the same rate.
