Answer:
Explanation:
a ) The earth rotates by 2π radian in 24 x 60 x 60 s
so angular speed ( w ) = 2π / (24 x 60 x 60) = 7.268 x 10⁻⁵ rad / s
b ) Linear speed of city of Arlington ( v ) = w r = w R Cosλ where R is radius of the earth and λ is latitude .
v = 7.268 x 10⁻⁵ x 6.371 x 10⁶ cos 32.7357
389.5 m /s
acceleration = w² r = w² R Cos 32.7357
= (7.268 x 10⁻⁵ )² x 6.371 x 10⁶ x cos 32.7357
=283.08 x 10⁻⁴ m/s²
c) velocity ratio =
w r /w R =
R cos 32.73/ R
= Cos 32.73
= 0.84 .
Answer:
19.2 m/s
Explanation:
The train is moving at 18 m/s and you are walking in the same direction (east) so the speeds are added
18 + 1.2 = 19.2
If you were walking backwards (west) your velocity with respect to the ground would be
18 - 1.2 = 16.8
