The value of g is greater at the poles than at the equator why​

Physics

Degger [83]3 years ago

The reason is because the Earth is not a perfect sphere. The distance from the poles to the centre of the Earth is smaller and the gravity is slightly greater.
The distance from the equator to the centre is slightly bigger so gravity is slightly smaller.

Answer:

because the gravitational pull is maximum at the poles and decreases as it comes down toward the equator.

dusya [7]

from the question you can see that some detail is missing, using search engines i was able to get a similar question on "https://www.slader.com/discussion/question/a-student-throws-a-water-balloon-vertically-downward-from-the-top-of-a-building-the-balloon-leaves-t/"

here is the question : A student throws a water balloon vertically downward from the top of a building. The balloon leaves the thrower's hand with a speed of 60.0m/s. Air resistance may be ignored,so the water balloon is in free fall after it leaves the throwers hand. a) What is its speed after falling for 2.00s? b) How far does it fall in 2.00s? c) What is the magnitude of its velocity after falling 10.0m?

Answer:

(A) 26 m/s

(B) 32.4 m

(C) v = 15.4 m/s

Explanation:

initial speed (u) = 6.4 m/s

acceleration due to gravity (a) = 9.9 m/s^[2}

time (t) = 2 s

(A)   What is its speed after falling for 2.00s?

  from the equation of motion v = u + at we can get the speed

v = 6.4 + (9.8 x 2) = 26 m/s

(B) How far does it fall in 2.00s?

  from the equation of motion s=ut+0.5at^{2} we can get the distance covered

s = (6.4 x 2) + (0.5 x 9.8 x 2 x 2)

s = 12.8 + 19.6 = 32.4 m

c) What is the magnitude of its velocity after falling 10.0m?

from the equation of motion below we can get the velocity

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2as\\v^{2} = 6.4^{2} + (2x9.8x10)\\V^{2} = 236.96\\v = \sqrt{236.96}

v = 15.4 m/s
