Solve the following problems. Because Earth is rotating around its axis, objects on its surface have radial acceleration. Take note that the radius of the Earth is 6,380 km and Earth rotates around its axis in 24 hours. a. What is the radial acceleration of an object at Earth's equator in m/s? b. What is the radial acceleration for an object at 20-degree latitude? c. Express your answers in parts (a) and (b) as a fraction of acceleration due to gravity, g. Using these values, explain why objects on Earth's surface are not thrown off into space.
You're designing a highway so that the maximum centripetal acceleration on a curve is no more than 1.7 m/s2. What is the minimum curvature radius to accommodate a 52-km/h maximum speed? Give your answer in meters I know the formula involves a= v^2/r and we get r by itself; and then, we are to find minimum curvature radius. My question has to do with a conversion of 52 km to meters, and yes, km=1000 m. Can you help me to conceptualize (52 km/h)^2 to (14.4 m/s)^2 better?

Hi, today I had my engineering mechanics 1 test which I completely screwed up. I was quite confident in the uniform circular motion, but I had this problem in my exam which completely confused me. When I read "upward vertical acceleration" my head just start to spin as I couldn't understand what force could cause an upward acceleration. Could you help me with this problem? I bet it is easier than it looks, but still, I am confused about what is asking me and most importantly about the input it is giving me. I don't have my exam paper with me, but on my body diagram, I knew that on the aeroplane were exerted the Force of Contact Fn1 and the Force m1g in the y opposite direction. On the pilot was acting the Force of Contact with the seat of the aeroplane Fn2 and the m2g in the y opposite direction. Here is the problem: During an air show an aircraft comes out of a dive at the bottom of a circular arc at a horizontal speed of 97m/s. In the cockpit the aircraft pilot of mass 58kg…

A ladybug sits at the outer edge of a merry-go-round, and a gentleman bug sits halfway between here and the axis of rotation. The merry-go-round makes a complete revolution once each second. What is the speed of the ladybug? Write a brief explanation for why that answer is correct. It would be appropriate to include the equations used for uniform circular motion. (A) 1/4 the ladybug's speed. (B) 1/2 the ladybug's speed. (C) the same as the ladybug's speed. (D) twice the ladybug's speed. (E) four times the ladybug's speed.
