What is the linear speed of a point on the equator, due to the earth's rotation?

Physics
1 answer:
kvv77 [185]3 years ago
8 0
The equatorial radius of the earth is
r = 6378 km = 6378 x 10³ m

The earth makes 1 revolution in 24 hours.
The angular velocity is
ω = (2π rad)/(24*3600 s) = 7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s

The tangential velocity (linear velocity) at a point on the equator is
v = rω
   = (6378 x 10³ m)*(7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s)
   = 463.8 m/s

Answer: 463.8 m/s

When a current is passed through plasma and that current is increased will the temperature of the plasma increase . if it does t
Delicious77 [7]

The temperature of the plasma will increase as current is passed through it.

<h3>Meaning of Current and temperature</h3>

Current can be defined as a flow of charged particles through a medium and the particles includes: electrons or ions.

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness experienced by a material.

The more current passes through the plasma the more energy is induced making the particles to move faster which in turns causes temperature to increase and reducing the resistance of the plasma.

In conclusion, The current causes temperature to increase and this reduces the resistance.

How did the magnet’s density measurement using the Archimedes’ Principle compare to the density measurement using the calculated
guapka [62]

Answer:

The two methods will yield different results as one is subject to experimental errors that us the Archimedes method of measurement, the the density measurement method will be more accurate

Explanation:

This is because the density method using the calculated volume will huve room for less errors that's occur in practical method i.e Archimedes method due to human error

The table represents the speed of a car in a northern direction over several seconds. A 2-column table with 5 rows. The first co
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Column 1 should be titled “Time,” and Column 2 should be titled

“Velocity.” ⇒ 1st answer

Explanation:

* <em>Lets revise some definitions of graphs</em>

A velocity-time graph represents the speed and direction an object

travels over a period of time.

Velocity-time graph is called speed-time graph.

The vertical axis of a velocity-time graph represents the velocity of the

object and horizontal axis represents the time from the initial position

In an acceleration time graph y-axis represents the acceleration, and

x-axis represents the time

The table represents the <em>speed of a car in a northern</em> direction over

several seconds

That means the data in the table represent the <em>velocity</em> of the car in a

certain time

Time (s)             Velocity (m/s)  

   0                            5

   2                            10

   4                            15

   6                            20

   8                            25

   10                           30

Column 1 would be on the x-axis

x-axis represents the time

Column 2 would be on the y-axis

y-axis represents the velocity

Column 1 should be titled “Time,” and Column 2 should be titled

“Velocity.”

A ball dropped from a window strikes the ground 2.76 seconds later. How high is the window above the ground
sweet [91]

Answer:

37.33m

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

S = ut + 1/2gt^2

Time t = 2.76secs

g = 9.8m/s^2

S = 0 + 1/2(9.8)(2.76)^2

S = 4.9*7.6176

S = 37.33

Hence the window is 37.33m above the ground
