This theory was first proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus. Copernicus was a Polish astronomer. He first published the heliocentric system in his book: De revolutionibus <span>orbium </span>coelestium<span> , "On the revolutions of the heavenly bodies," which appeared in 1543.</span>
Answer: First, we determine the circumference of the Mars by the equation below.
C = 2πr
Substituting the known values,
C = 2(π)(3,397 km) = 6794π km
To determine the tangential speed, we divide the circumference calculated above by the time it takes for Mars to complete one rotation and that is,
tangential speed = 6794π km / 24.6 hours = 867.64 km/h
Answer:
4.7 x 10³ rad / s
Explanation:
During the time light goes and comes back , one slot is replaced by next slot while rotating before the light source
Time taken by light to travel a distance of 2 x 500 m is
= (2 x 500) / 3 x 10⁸
= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ s .
In this time period, two consecutive slots come before the source of light one after another by rotation. There are 400 slots so time taken to make one rotation
= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ x 400
= 13.33 x 10⁻⁴ s
This is the time period so
T = 13.33 X 10⁻⁴
Angular speed
= 2π / T
= 
4.7 x 10³ rad / s
B. It’s the same roughly at all latitudes
