Hi, in physics I they have The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours. I have already found the angular speed ω= 7.3×10−5 rad/s and the point on the equator v= 460 ms. What I'm trying to understand is what is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 2/5 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator? (Hint: what is the radius of the circle in which the point moves?)
Hi, in physics I they have The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours.
I have already found the angular speed
ω= 7.3×10−5 rad/s and the point on the equator v= 460 ms.
What I'm trying to understand is what is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 2/5 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator? (Hint: what is the radius of the circle in which the point moves?)
