What should be the angular velocity of earth due to rotation about its own axis so that the weight at equator becomes of initial value? (g= acceleration due to gravity, R-radius of earth)

Answer: (B)

Solution

At the equator (latitude ) the effective acceleration due to gravity is . The weight becomes of its initial value, so . Then \dfrac{3g}{5}$ =
