emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

b. 84 minutes

Explanation:

a_c=g = Centripetal acceleration = 9.81 m/s²

r = Radius of Earth = 6378.1 km

v = Velocity

Centripetal acceleration is given by

a_c=\dfrac{v^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{a_cr}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{9.81\times 6378100}\\\Rightarrow v=7910.06706\ m/s

Time period is given by

T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v60}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{2\pi 6378.1\times 10^3}{7910.06706\times 60}\\\Rightarrow T=84.43835\ minutes

The time period of Earth’s rotation would be 84.43835 minutes
