The rotation of Earth is equivalent to one day which is comprised of 24 hours. To determine the number of miles in Earth's circumference, one simply have to multiply the given rate by the appropriate conversion factor and dimensional analysis. This is shown below.

C = (1038 mi/h)(24 h/1 day)
C = 24,912 miles

From the given choices, the nearest value would have to be 20,000 mile. The answer is the second choice.

Indicate the result of each of the following unit vector cross products (unit vector hat-symbols not shown): . kxi = . jxi= -jxk

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cross product of two vectors is given by

$\overrightarrow{A}\times \overrightarrow{B}=\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |\left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |Sin\theta \widehat{n}$

Where, θ be the angle between the two vectors and \widehat{n} be the unit vector along the direction of cross product of two vectors.

Here, K x i = - j

As K is the unit vector along Z axis, i is the unit vector along X axis and j be the unit vector along axis.

The direction of cross product of two vectors is given by the right hand palm rule.

So, k x i = j

j x i = - k

- j x k = - i

i x i = 0
