The Car Needs Petrol Because?

Car engines burn fuel in cylinders. When the fuel burns the air in the cylinders expands. The expanding air pushes down on a piston. The piston pushes down on a crankshaft. Then the piston comes back up. The piston going down and up makes the crankshaft rotate. This rotating motion is transferred to the wheels of the car. That pushes the car along. Thus the fuel burning in the cylinders pushes the pistons. Without Petrol to burn in the cylinders, the pistons would not push the crankshaft. It would not make the wheels move.


How do you stay on the surface of earth when it is rotating?

Gravity. And, we are moving right along with the surface.


If we jump in the air why do we fall back on the same spot given that the earth is rotating beneath us at 1100 miles per sec. Also why can't we see the earth rotating from a commercial aircraft?

Answer to your first question:When you are stationery on the Earth you are actually moving with the earth at 1100 miles per sec. So when you jump, at the instant before the jump you have a velocity of 1100 miles per sec.And so while you're in air, due to inertia, you move along with the earth at that velocity and thus all along ur jump have the same velocity. So you land at the same spot you started with. Answer to your second question:This one is pretty much the same as the first.When a commercial aircraft lifts off, whatever maybe its speed, it is actually relative to the Earth. That is, say if the speed of the aircraft is like 400 miles per sec it is actually 400 miles per sec + 1100 miles per sec. All along the flight the speed remains = (speed of plane) + 1100 miles per sec.So basically that aircraft moves much faster than the earth and we dont notice the earth rotating.


What is the pitch of an aircraft?

The pitch of the aircraft is the amount of rotation along the lateral axis. The lateral axis runs along the wingspan, therefore the pitch is the amount that the nose of the plane is above or below that axis.
