Where on the surface of the earth should you stand to experience the least centripetal acceleration?

Hello, To answer the question, the place where one would experience the least amount of centripetal acceleration would be at either the north or south pole. If you think about it, the part of the Earth that the spins the fastest is at the Equator. The North and South poles move the least while the Earth spins. Centripetal Force is all about making sure that a object on a spinning sphere keeps going around in a circle. If the object spins at a greater rate, the centripetal acceleration would be larger because there is more of a "pull" to keep the object in line.

Where was the first successful and competed manned flight?

The first successful and completed manned flight took place in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, USA, by the Wright brothers on December 17, 1903. It lasted for 12 seconds and covered a distance of 120 feet.


Is the north star north in Jerusalem?

Yes. Since the North Star is aligned with Earth's Axis over the north pole it is visible to the north everywhere in the northern hemisphere.


What is astronomical north?

astronomical north is a more specific reference to the north star. The north star is actually part of a 3 star constellation that is moving, as a result, true north is falling between two stars in the constellation. True North represents what the direct actual north is, but astronomical north is referring to what we see as north by the stars.

What is5 th grade formula fir acceleration?

The rate of change of velocity in a particular direction per unit second is acceleration. Let us assume a body is moving at a speed v' in particular direction, say north, and in t seconds, its velocity increases/decreases to v". So the acceleration is, a=(v"~v')/t


Direction of an object's velocity changes uniformly frome east to north What is the direction of acceleration?

North-west. More specifically, as the object's velocity direction changes uniformly from east to north, the acceleration and force producing this acceleration are both constant and changing direction uniformly from north to west.


A body goes at 2 ms towards north and after 10 seconds at 2 ms towards east its acceleration is?

If the body is going at a steady 2m/sec north, it doesn't have any acceleration. When it starts to move east it will experience acceleration in that direction. If you mean it reaches a speed to the east of 2m/sec after 10 secs, the acceleration is 0.2 m/sec2 in that direction. You don't say if it is continuing north at 2 m/sec as well. If it has stopped going north, it will have had a deceleration in that direction, and if that took 10 secs that would be a deceleration of 0.2 m/sec2. In that case it will have followed a curved path, but the two effects can be separated as vectors. I find your wording not very clear.


Is it possible for the boat's acceleration to point due south if it travels due north?

Certainly. A boat moving due north with decreasing speed has acceleration in the south direction.
