The Earth Rotates Through One Complete Revolution Every 1,440 Minutes

question 5

Short Answer

The earth rotates through one complete revolution every 1,440 minutes. Since the axis of rotation is perpendicular to the equator, you can think of a person standing on the equator as standing on the edge of a disc that is rotating through one complete revolution every 1,440 minutes. Find the angular velocity of a person standing on the equator. If the answer needs rounding, round it to five decimal places. __________ rad/min
