Sorry!
I know that centripetal acceleration is v^2/r
The diameter of the Earth is 12740 km, and half of that is the radius of 6370km.
How would I find v?
Knowing that the diameter of the Earth at the equator is 12 740 km, compute the radial acceleration of a point on the surface of the Earth at the equator, due to the rotation of the Earth about its axis.
The gravitational force on a baseball is −Fgjˆ. A pitcher throws the baseball with velocity viˆ by uniformly accelerating it straight forward horizontally for a time interval ∆t =t–0 = t. If the ball starts from rest,
(a) through what distance does it accelerate before its release?
(b) What...
