A person located on the equator is orbiting the center of the Earth to the East at 1670 km/s.

1 answer:

3 0

Moving at the same velocity to the East which means that they are both on the same planet in space.

<h3>Movement and velocity of planet </h3>

Relative to the center of the Earth, a person on the North Pole is moving at the same velocity to the East because both are present on the same planet in space.

The whole planet of earth spins in the same direction as well as with the same velocity so we can conclude that option A is the correct statement about direction and velocity of the earth.

A woman takes her dog Rover for a walk on a leash. She pulls on the leash with a force of 30.0 N at an angle of 29° above the ho

Answer:

The force parallel to the horizontal is 26.24 N

Explanation:

She pulls on the leash with a force F = 30 N, this force, since its at an angle of 29° (i will cal this angle $\theta$ ), it has a force component on x (the horizontal, i will call this force $F_{x}$ ) and a force component on y (the vertical, i will call this $F_{y}$ ).

This can be seen in the attached picture.

Since we are asked about the force parallel to the horizontal, we need to find the component of the force $F_{x}$ , since $F_{x}$ is the adjacent angle, we need to use cosine:

$F_{x}=Fcos \theta$
