Earth tangential velocity


An astronomer at the equator measures the Doppler shift of sunlight at sunset. From this, she calculates that Earth's tangential velocity at the equator is 465 m/s. The centripetal acceleration at the equator is 3.41 × 10-2 m/s2. Use this data to calculate Earth's radius.
