A man accepts a bet and circumnavigates the earth in 80 days Using 6200 miles as the circumference of the earth at his latitude determine the average speed in miles over hour?
3.229 miles/hour
How do you determine the circumference of the earth if you know a circumference of a smaller latitude and the number of degrees the latitude is from the equator?
Circumference of the earth at particular latitude can be determined using the formula, Circumference of the earth = 2*PI*r*cos(Φ0) where r = radius of the at particular latitude r = R * (1 - ((1 / 298.25722356) * (0.5 - 0.5 * COS (2 * Φ0)))) R= radius of the earth at equator Φ0= latitude
What is the benefit of using Google to determine average income rates?
The benefit of using Google to determine average income rates is that Google will locate various websites that makes determining average income rates extremely easy.
In the movie Around the World in 80 Days a man accepts a bet and circumnavigates the earth in 80 days. Using 6200 miles as the circumference of the earth at his latitude determine t?
The man would need to travel at an average speed of approximately 78 miles per hour to circumnavigate the Earth in 80 days. This calculation is based on the assumption that he travels continuously without delays or stops.
How do you work out diameter from using circumference?
EDIT: To find the diameter, using the circumference - you divide the circumference by the value of Pi - Snakester1962 (Supervisor)
How could longitude lines and latitude lines help if you were in sea?
If you used a sextant and a marine chronometer you could determine your position and plot this on a map using latitude and longitude. If you did this regularly you would be able to plot your course.
What is the average girth of a man?
Somewhere between four and five inches circumference. Measured around the middle of the penis (lengthwise) using a tape measure
How do you write an equation while using circumference?
Diameter = Circumference/pi
How do you find diameter of circle using the circumference?
Diameter = circumference/pi
How do you equate pi?
Do you mean, how do you determine the value of pi? Use a compass to draw a circle. Measure the measure the circumference of the circle using a string. Draw the diameter and measure it. The radius is ½ the diameter. pi = Circumference ÷ radius Do this several times and calculate the average. It should be close to 3.14 You could wrap a string around a can and to measure the circumference. Then measure the diameter of the top of the can by finding the longest distance across the top. One problem with this method is the top and bottom of the can is a bit larger than the middle. Circumference divided by diameter
How do you find circumference using radius'?
Circumference of a circle = 2*pi*radius
What is the formula to calculate circumference using radius?
Circumference = 2*pi*radius
