Chapter 9, Problem 25

(choose chapter or problem)

The effective weight we of mass m at the equator of the Earth is defined by w. = mg - ma, where a is the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration given in 23. Determine the effective weight of a 192-lb person if the radius of the Earth is 4000 mi, g = 32 ft/s2, and v = 1530 ft/s.
