what is the angular speed [tex] \omega[/tex] about the polar axis of a point on Earth's surface at a latitude of [tex]40^o[/tex]
I know that the radius of the Earth is [tex] 6.37 x 10^6m[/tex]
I also know that the Earth rotates about this axis ([tex]40^o[/tex])
I don't really understand what their asking...obviously angular speed, but I can't picture it
What do I do?
