recently asked this question in physics class:  If the day were
shorter, you would weight less. How long would a fall day at the
equator be (in hours) for you to be able to moon walk for the
rest of your life?  After the ambiguity in the question was
cleared up the question becomes: What would the length of a day
be in order for an object, at the equator, to experience a net
force of zero N towards the center of the Earth.  Any thoughts
would we appreciated. I have come up with two different answers
and would like to know which one is right. Phys.Org News Partner
