If the earth rotated 10 times faster would you be weightless?
Wagbo20
equator gives maximum centripetal force at any revs
say mass = 70 kg
acceleration due to gravity = 9.807 (m/s)/s
your force due to gravity = 686.5 newtons
radius at equator = 6 371 000 metres
circumference at equator = 40 030 174 metres
time for 1 rotation = 86 164 seconds (sidereal day)
velocity at equator = 464.6 metres / second
10 * normal velocity = 4646 metres/second
centripetal acceleration (a )= v^2/r = 3.388 (m/s)/s
f=m*a = 70 * 3.388 = 237.16 newtons
so , no is the answer

What happens when the earth rotates 30 times faster?
When the earth rotates 30 time faster every thing will get burnt due to friction with the air if not then i dont know...............
How much faster is Saturn then Earth?
24 billion times
Would gravity be ten times stronger if the earth spun ten times faster?
no,
How many days does saturn revolve around in a day?
In 24 hours, or one earth day, Saturn would have rotated 2 ¼ times.
How many times does Pluto rotate in an earth day?
Pluto does not make a full rotation in an Earth day. In one Earth day, pluto has only rotated about 15% of the way.A full rotation on Pluto is about 6.4 Earth days.
Does the moon spin fifty times faster than the earth?
No, the moon does not spin faster than the Earth, it actually spins much more slowly than the Earth does, just once per lunar month, keeping the same face pointed at the Earth at all times.
How many complete rotation has the earth mad so far this month?
The Earth does a complete rotation on its axis every day. The Earth's rotation is the reason why we have night and day. So, if today is the 18th, the Earth has rotated 18 times this month.
If the earth has rotated 183 times and only 182.5 days have gone past how long does it take for 1 rotation of the earth?
The Earths sidereal rotation period is 23 hours and 56 seconds. = =
What happens when the earth turn 30 times faster?
Days last for 45 minutes.
Why An object will weigh approximately 6 times HEAVIER on earth than it would on the moon?
Earth is a about 6 times more massive than the moon (Has more density per volume, since it's technically weightless in space) Gravity is proportional to how large a planet or moon is, so the object will be heavier on earth (a larger planet) than on the moon (a small body)
Why is the sun in the sky at some times and not at the other times?
The sun always is in the sky. Sometimes you can not see it because it is concealed behind clouds. At night, you will not be able to see the sun from your location, because the earth has rotated away from the sun.
A pendulum clock that keeps correct time on earth is taken to moonit will run at 6 times faster?
No. It will run 2.45 times as SLOW.
