Earth’s rotation makes the Sun appear to rise in the . 5. It takes one for Earth to complete one rotation. 6. Earth’s rotation axis is always in the same direction. B. Temperature and Latitude. 1. The Sun shines on the part of Earth that the Sun. 2. When light shines on a tilted surface, the light is more than it would be on a surface that is not tilted. a. Because of the tilt of Earth’s ...

Answer: So that the rocket can get a speed boost from the Earth's rotation. 11b. Why does NASA launch rockets from Kennedy Space Center in Florida (latitude ~ 29û), instead of from, say, NASAÕs Moffett field in California (latitude ~ 37.5û)? Answer: Because Florida is as close to the equator as you can easily get in this country. The extra boost from the Earth's rotation saves millions of ...

Velocity should be changed to speed since direction is changing, and magnitude of velocity is not. 68. Because of Earth’s rotation about its axis, you weigh slightly less at the equator than at the poles. Explain. The apparent outward force at the equator should reduce the weight. There is also the effect of different diameters of the earth ...

If the earth spins on its axis at 1100 miles/hour, what is the speed of the Earth's rotation in feet per second? (1 mile = 5280 feet) You drive 200 miles in 3 hours before stopping for 30 minutes for lunch and gas. After lunch you travel 150 miles in an hour and a half. What was your average speed for the trip?

Satellites that stay in one position above the surface of the earth by moving at the exact speed as Earth’s rotation are said to be in geosynchronous orbit. Remote sensing involves satellites such as LANDSAT and RADARSAT that move to different locations in search of natural resources, pollution, forest fires, ship movement or global land forms. These satellites travel far more quickly than ...
