Hollow earth

Do you have any questions?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
2.

why would digging a hole from pole to pole help you fall through the earth, rather than starting your dig in Austin?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
3.

Why would you be free floating as soon as you are in the center of earth?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
4.

in the hollow earth scenario, why would you be free floating when you are close to one side of the sphere,

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
5.

imagine you are inside the hollow sphere, shining a flashlight on a section of the sphere. The closer you are to that section of the sphere,

Go try this with a flashlight on a wall to check your answer

Using the same math we used from the parallax lab, we can find the relationship between the linear size of the circle of light, the linear distance to the circle of light and the angular size of the circle of light. Which of the following shows that relationship?

Using the equation you chose from above, solve for r and find the area of the circle of light.

A vector is described as 25 N, 43.0° from the horizontal. Break those down into two component vectors, A+B, where A is in the x direction, and B is in the y direction. Quick refresher how to do this here. http://www.phys.uwosh.edu/rioux/physlets/morephyslets/kinematics_6.html

Calculate the amount of gravity the earth applies to the international space station, If the mass of the ISS is 419,725 kg, the mass of the earth is 5.9736 x 10^24 kg, The radius of the earth is 6,378.1km and the ISS orbits at 408 km. Pay attention to units and significant figures, the Gravitational constant G = 6.674×10−11 m3⋅kg−1⋅s−2.

If you calculate the amount of gravity the earth applies to the international space station, If the mass of the ISS is 419,725 kg, the mass of the earth is 5.9736 x 10^24 kg, The radius of the earth is 6,378.1km and the ISS orbits at 408 km. How many significant figures would you have to use?

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth is about 9.8 m/s^2. The acceleration due to gravity on the ISS is about 8.7 m/s^2. Why does all the footage of the ISS look like there is no gravity?

How are you feeling about

  • gravity inside a solid body

  • inverse square law for light and gravity

  • plate tectonics, specifically divergent plates

  • how to calculate the force of gravity

  • why the sea floor is magnetized

  • why the sea floor flips from being north south to south north in stripes along the sea floor

  • what is the earth's magnetic field

  • what causes the earth's magnetic field

  • I've got this

  • I'm fuzzy

  • so confused
