When earth angular velocity increase then gravitational acceleration increase?
Let's be very accurate when describing accelerations in this question. Consider a person at the equator. The gravitational force of attraction on him is constant whether or not the earth is rotating. This acceleration is called the acceleration due to gravity (ag) Now, since the earth is rotating about its axis, there has to be a centripetal force on the person. It is the gravitational force which provides the centripetal force. Thus, there is a centripetal acceleration on the person (ac) Finally, the rest of the gravitational force causes the person to accelerate towards earth. This is called the acceleration of free fall (af) This gives ag = ac + af ac is given by the equation: ac = w2r where w is the angular velocity and r is the radius of rotation If the angular velocity of the earth increases, centripetal acceleration will increase. af = ag - w2r Therefore, the acceleration of free fall will decrease.
Does a person have force friction and gravitation?
Yes. -- Force when you lift something. -- Friction on the soles of your shoes when you walk. -- Gravitation all the time.
What is the gravitation attraction between two person one half in apart if their masses are both equal to 60 kilograms?
You can find a detailed guide on gravitation on splung.com/content/sid/2/page/gravitation
What is a cartoon coaster?
It may very well be a coaster that a person sets their cups or glasses upon, with a cartoon graphic theme.
Who said Gravitation can not be held responsible for people falling in love?
Albert Einstein is the person the quote "Gravitation can not be held responsible for people falling in love" is attributed to.
What age do you need to get on a roller coaster?
It is not age, but how tall a person is.
What causes a car to accelerate?
A person pressing the gas pedal.
How does gravitational and centripetal acceleration makes a person feel?
These two forces are very effective. These make a person feel very different. These affect the behavior of a person a lot.
How many G's does a person experience on the voyage roller coaster?
4.2 G's
What can you draw for the word accelerate?
A person stomping on the gas pedal of a moving car.
If a person is riding a bike and has not changed either speed or direction is that person accelerating?
No. they must be increasing speed to accelerate.
Does centripetal mean balanced or unbalanced?
Centripetal force acting on an orbiting object is unbalanced since the object is being accelerated.Velocity is continually changing direction if not speed. This means an orbiting object is accelerating and the direction of acceleration is toward the center. In fact, centripetal means "center seeking."A person at rest on the surface of the Earth is being acted upon by a centripetal force (toward the center of the Earth, that is, down) which is exactly equal and opposite to the spring force of the Earth's matter pushing up. Thus, in this case, the centripetal force is balanced.The previous answer (below) is generally incorrect.No,because when a body revolves round an orbit,its CENTRIPETAL force is balanced by the WEIGHT of the body!thank you!!
