Question

At part 2, it said W = mg, But at part 3, when you have to find the ratio betweenmagnitude of the coriolis force on the racing car to the weight ofthe car, you divided it by m * 32. I do not understand where32 came from. Please teach me this problem.

Explanation / Answer

Anonymous,   you should be able to understand the homework problem you are asking about by following the stepsbelow:   you should be able to understand the homework problem you are asking about by following the stepsbelow:               32 in the problem refers to the value of 'g' acceleration due togravity in CGS system. i.e. in CGS system g = 32.2ft/s2 w=mg=32.2m or 32m w=mg=32.2m or 32m         "I hope this helps!Best of luck with the rest of your coursework."
