Consider a planet of radius 5.53X10^6 m with a rotation period of 24.3 hours. Compute the radial acceleration of a point on the surface of the planet at the equator due to its rotation about its axis.
What is the Radial Acceleration.
I found out that the formula for radial acceleration is v^2/r but I don't know how to make the problem fit into it!
