hey there is answer !!
I hope you help !!
Dear Student
Kindly find the answers of your asked query.
Centripetal acceleration is given by, a c = ω 2 R = (2π/T) 2 R
T for earth is = 24 h = 86400 s
R = 6400 km = 6400000 m
Therefore,
a c = 0.034 m/s 2 =3.4 cm/s 2
hence option (3) is correct.
Hope this information will clear you doubts about Gravitation.
