Neglect the effect of rotation of the earth. Suppose the earth suddenly stops attracting objects placed near its surface. A person standing on the surface of the earth will remain standing.
Explanation:
- If the earth suddenly stops attracting objects placed near its surface, a person standing on the surface of the earth will (d) remain standing.
- If we do not neglect the rotation effect of the earth, the man will fly tangentially to the earth’s surface.
- But as the rotation effect of the earth is neglected, the net force on the person is zero and according to the first law of motion, the person near the surface of the earth stands as such he was.
