DO you understand the meaning of this question?!

It was in an astro oympiad ....but the Newton's law of gravitation doesn't mention anything about rotation.

Answer 3

yea i know, but do you know or have any idea why g would change due to earth's rotation in the first place?!

Answer 5

Well.. due to earth's spin, you sort of get an outward push right?
(imagine ur umbrella with water drops, when you sping, the drops are thrown away ? )
