The 40th parallel of north latitude runs across the United States through Philadelphia, Indianapolis, and Denver. At this latitu

de, Earth’s radius is about 3030 miles. The earth rotates with an angular velocity of LaTeX: \frac{\pi}{12} π 12 radians (or 15°) per hour toward the east. If a jet flies due west with the same angular velocity relative to the ground at the equinox, the Sun as viewed from the jet will stop in the sky. How fast in miles per hour would the jet have to travel west at the 40th parallel for this to happen? Show your work and explain your process.

Answer:

793.25 mi/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The radius of the earth is = 3030 miles

The angular velocity = \dfrac{\pi}{12} rads

If a jet flies due west with the same angular velocity relative to the ground at the equinox;

We are  to determine the How fast in miles per hour would the jet have to travel west at the 40th parallel for this to happen.

NOW;

Distance s is expressed by the relation

s = rθ

s = 3030(\frac{\pi}{12} )

s = 793.25

The speed which depicts how fast in miles per hour the jet would have traveled is :

speed (v) = \frac{s}{t}

v = \frac{793.25}{1}

v = 793.25 mi/hr

Hence, the jet would have traveled 793.25 mi/hr due west at the  40th parallel for this to happen.

The <em>echo</em> number 20222022202220222022 is the <em>perfect</em> square of 4496890281.

<h3>What echo number is a perfect square</h3>

An <em>echo</em> number has a <em>perfect</em> square if its square root is also a <em>natural</em> number. After some iterations we found that <em>echo</em> number 20222022202220222022 is a <em>perfect</em> square:

\sqrt{20222022202220222022} = 4496890281

The <em>echo</em> number 20222022202220222022 is the <em>perfect</em> square of 4496890281. \blacksquare
