Answer:
Explanation:
Initial moment of inertia of the earth I₁ = 2/5 MR² , M is mss of the earth and R is the radius . If ice melts , it forms an equivalent shell of mass 2.3 x 10¹⁹ Kg
Final moment of inertia I₂ = 2/5 M R² + 2/3 x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ x R²
For change in period of rotation we shall apply conservation of angular momentum law
I₁ ω₁ = I₂ ω₂ , ω₁ and ω₂ are angular velocities initially and finally .
I₁ / I₂ = ω₂ / ω₁
I₁ / I₂ = T₁ / T₂ , T₁ , T₂ are time period initially and finally .
T₂ / T₁ = I₂ / I₁
(2/5 M R² + 2/3 x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ x R²) / 2/5 MR²
1 + 5 / 3 x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ / M
= 1 + 5 / 3 x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ / 5.97 x 10²⁴
= 1 + .0000064
T₂ = 24 (1 + .0000064)
= 24 hours + .55 s
change in length of the day = .55 s .
The path the bowling ball would most closely follow after leaving the airplane is horizontal direction.
<h3>
Path of the bowling ball</h3>
Based on the law of inertia, which is the reluctance of an object to stop moving once in motion or start moving when it is at rest.
The bowling ball will maintain the path of the airline in the first few seconds of fall, after which it will change its path to vertical direction.
Thus, the path the bowling ball would most closely follow after leaving the airplane is horizontal direction.

-identifies an electric charge
-it can identify its polarity (positive or negative) if you compare it to a charge that you already know
-can identify the magnitude of a charge (how big of a charge it is)
Scientists measure the time between the arrival of an earthquake's __P____ and ___S____ waves to help determine the distance between the recording seismograph and the earthquake epicenter.
Explanation:
P- (compressional) and S- (shear) waves produced in earthquakes travel at different speeds. P waves are faster than S waves and hence will be detected first by a seismograph after an earthquake. The further away a seismograph is from the epicenter of an earthquake, the longer the time difference between the two (2) waves will be.
Using several, at least 3, seismographs located at different geoghraphical locations and detecting earthquakes, geologists can extrapolate the epicenter of an earthquake using the time differences in arrivals of the two waves in each of the seismographs, using the mathematics of triangulation.
