Answer:
Explanation:
Initial moment of inertia of the earth I₁ = 2/5 MR² , M is mss of the earth and R is the radius . If ice melts , it forms an equivalent shell of mass 2.3 x 10¹⁹ Kg
Final moment of inertia I₂ = 2/5 M R² + 2/3 x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ x R²
For change in period of rotation we shall apply conservation of angular momentum law
I₁ ω₁ = I₂ ω₂ , ω₁ and ω₂ are angular velocities initially and finally .
I₁ / I₂ = ω₂ / ω₁
I₁ / I₂ = T₁ / T₂ , T₁ , T₂ are time period initially and finally .
T₂ / T₁ = I₂ / I₁
(2/5 M R² + 2/3 x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ x R²) / 2/5 MR²
1 + 5 / 3 x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ / M
= 1 + 5 / 3 x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ / 5.97 x 10²⁴
= 1 + .0000064
T₂ = 24 (1 + .0000064)
= 24 hours + .55 s
change in length of the day = .55 s .
Answer:
sun, jupiter, earth, moon
Explanation:
how big they are
The planet MARS is visible without a telescope on many clear nights. The planets JUPITER, MERCURY, VENUS and SATURN are also viewable without the aid of magnification.
