Undergrad Why Sea Level sometimes gives an illusion being at height
Maybe you want to say that if a radius is 4000 km, for a surface of 1000 km, the corners of this surface on the given sphere will be at a difference of about 31,496,588mm, that is 31.49km in front of tangent from the middle of the 1000km circle arc. That is, 31,496,588mm (31.49 km) distance from...- deZordine

Undergrad Why Sea Level sometimes gives an illusion being at height
If I'm with my feet up to my ankles in the water of the sea, on the water's edge, where is the sea level, exactly where? How far is it from me? At 5 km you can still consider the sea level relative to my feet? That is, 5 km from me, can a point on the surface of the water still be considered...- deZordine

Graduate Airplane flight and the rotation of the Earth
Inertia, lost of inertia, atmospheric motion (resistance to movement, it is a force that opposes the movement of anybody that moves in a fluid, so in the air) The airplane, passes from a point with speed 0 to a point with speed 1667km / h. (the case from North pole to the Equator) Depending on... -
Graduate Airplane flight and the rotation of the Earth
If a plane departs from the North Pole (where the Earth's rotation speed around its axis is 0 Km / h) on the median line to Romania, around the 45th parallel (where the Earth's rotation speed around its axis is 1178, 80 km / h) would the plane reach its destination only by flying to *South* (...
