IF THE LAW WERE CHANGED SO THAT TRFFIC IN BRITAIN TRAVELLED ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE ROAD(INSTEAD OF LEFT),WOULD THE LENGTH OF THE DAY INCREASE DECREASE OR REMAIN UNALTERED.GIVE REASONS.

The length of day does not depend on how the traffic rules.


Lol!!!!!!!!!!

Well,I may be way off..but I thought of ths ridiculous thing..


If traffic moves on the right,on both sides,it will be close to the median of the road.So,all the weight which was till now along the sides is now concentrated at the centre.


This is the ridiculous part- with so much weight shifted to the centre of the road, there will be a slight depression there...so the net radius of the earth would,I guess decrease..so it will rotate faster..coz centripetal force is inversely proportional to radius.Hence,the day would be shorter.

DAY WOULD BE LONGER.HINT EAST WEST COMPONENT OF TRAFFIC MOMENTUM WILL BE MORE TAKE EARTHS EAST WEST ROTATION INTO CONSIDERATION

same as... a question which asks
a train's wheel will suffer more wear and tear if it travels eastward or westward.
and yes sinha ur latest post is in the correct direction :)

Someone elucidate please..


I understood the wear-and-tear-of-train-wheel part,but can't connect it with this.


Rates assured.

angular momentum wd increase tkng earths rot into cons.traffic travelling eastward would move a greater distance from earths axis


thus increase its +contribution to earths ang. momentum.rest u can work out
