MCQ
The angular speed of earth around its own axis is ......... $rad / s$
  • $\frac{\pi}{43200}$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi}{3600}$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{86400}$
  • D
    $\frac{\pi}{1800}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{\pi}{43200}$
a
(a)

Angular speed $=\frac{2 \pi}{T}$

$T \rightarrow$ Time period of earth $=24 h$

$\omega=\frac{2 \pi}{24 \times 60 \times 60}=\frac{\pi}{43200} \,rad s ^{-1}$
