Why does the gravitational field strength increase with latitude

Physics
1 answer:
otez555 [7]3 years ago
4 0
The second major reason for the difference in gravity at differentlatitudes is that the Earth's equatorial bulge (itself also caused by centrifugalforce from rotation) causes objects at the Equator to be farther from the planet's centre than objects at the poles.

A roadrunner is running along a straight desert road at a constant velocity of 25 m/s. If a certain coyote wants to capture the
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

t = 1.42 s and d = 35.5 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of a roadrunner is 25 m/s

A certain coyote wants to capture the roadrunner using a net dropped from an overpass that is 10 m high.

We need to find the time before the roadrunner is under the overpass and  how far away from the overpass is the roadrunner when the coyote drops the net.

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\\text{Here, u = 0 and a = g}\\\\d=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2d}{g}} \\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 10}{9.8}} \\\\t=1.42\ s

Let d is the distance traveled. So,

d = vt

d = 25 m/s × 1.42 s

d = 35.5 m

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

La energía mareomotriz se produce gracias al movimiento generado por las mareas, esta energía es aprovechada por turbinas, las cuales a su vez mueven la mecánica de un alternador que genera energía eléctrica, finalmente este último esta conectado con una central en tierra que distribuye la energía hacia la comunidad.

A very small sphere with positive charge 5.00uC is released from rest at a point 1.20cm from a very long line of uniform linear
JulijaS [17]
Let us situate this on the x axis, and let our uniform line of charge be positioned on the interval <span>(−L,0]</span> for some large number L. The voltage V as a function of x on the interval <span>(0,∞)</span> is given by integrating the contributions from each bit of charge. Let the charge density be λ. Thus, for an infinitesimal length element <span>d<span>x′</span></span>, we have <span>λ=<span><span>dq</span><span>d<span>x′</span></span></span></span>.<span>V(x)=<span>1/<span>4π<span>ϵ0</span></span></span><span>∫line</span><span><span>dq/</span>r</span>=<span>λ/<span>4π<span>ϵ0</span></span></span><span>∫<span>−L</span>0</span><span><span>d<span>x/</span></span><span>x−<span>x′</span></span></span>=<span>λ/<span>4π<span>ϵ0</span></span></span><span>(ln|x+L|−ln|x|)</span></span>
