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.

What type of volcano only ever has quiet eruptions?
77julia77 [94]
In contrast to quiet eruptions, other volcanoes erupt explosively. Mount St. Helens, for instance, spewed lava high in the air when it erupted. Two things control the type of eruption: how much water vapor and other gasses are in the magma and whether the magma is basaltic or granitic. Basaltic magma tends to ooze out gently in a thin, quiet eruption, while granitic magma is thicker and becomes trapped inside the volcano's vents. Once the pressure grows enough to force out the magma, it explodes.

How many seconds would it take a radio wave to travel from the planet Venus to
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

La distancia media de Venus al Sol es de 108.159.260,51 Km

La distancia media de la Tierra al Sol: 149.597.870,691 Km

La diferencia entre una y otra distancia media te dará el promedio de distancia de la Tierra a Venus: 41.438.618,181 Km.

Siendo la velocidad de la luz: 299.792,458 Km / seg

Divides: 41.438.618,181 Km / 299.792,458 Km / seg = 138,22433 segundos

138,22433 seg / 60 seg = 2,30374 minutos

Este tiempo es el que tarda la onda de radio en viajar del planeta Venus a la Tierra.

La velocidad de la onda de radio se conviene en considerarla igual al de la velocidad de la Luz en el vacío.

A train is moving west with an initial velocity of 20m/s accelerates at 4m/s for 10 seconds during this time the train moves a d
alex41 [277]

Answer:

400m

Explanation:

From Newton's law of motion;

S = ut + 1/2 at2

Where U is initial velocity

a is acceleration

t is velocity hence;

S is distance covered

S = 20×10 + 1/2 × 4×(10)^2

= 200 + 200 = 400m
