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.
Answer:
270 mi/h
Explanation:
Given that,
To the south,
v₁ = 300 mi/h, t₁ = 2 h
We can find distance, d₁

To the north,
v₂ = 250 mi/h, d₂ = 750 miles
We can find time, t₂

Now,
Average speed = total distance/total time

Hence, the average speed for the trip is 270 mi/h.
There are missing data in the text of the problem (found them on internet):
- speed of the car at the top of the hill:

- radius of the hill:

Solution:
(a) The car is moving by circular motion. There are two forces acting on the car: the weight of the car

(downwards) and the normal force N exerted by the road (upwards). The resultant of these two forces is equal to the centripetal force,

, so we can write:

(1)
By rearranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find N:

(b) The problem is exactly identical to step (a), but this time we have to use the mass of the driver instead of the mass of the car. Therefore, we find:

(c) To find the car speed at which the normal force is zero, we can just require N=0 in eq.(1). and the equation becomes:

from which we find
Using V= vo +at with Vo = 0 and a= 4m/sec2.
V= 0+ 4x8= 32m/s
It can be a) 12Hz.................
