The distance from New York to Tokyo is approximately 104 km. When it is 6:00 p.m. in New York, it is 7:00 a.m. of the next day of the week in Tokyo.

Use that information to do an order-of-magnitude estimate of the speed at which the earth's surface moves because of the earth's rotation

-10^10 km/h

-10^8 km/h

-10^5 km/h

-10^3 km/h​

Option D is correct. The speed at which the earth's surface moves because of the earth's rotation will then be equivalent to -10³ km/hr

Speed is a body is defined as the ratio of the distance with respect to the time taken by the body. Mathematically:

Speed = Distance/Time

GIven the following

Distance = 104km/hr

If it is 6:00 p.m. in New York, it is 7:00 a.m. of the next day of the week in Tokyo, this means that the time difference between New York and Tokyo is 11 hours.

Time = -11 hours

Get the required speed

Speed = 104/-11

Speed = -9.454545

Speed = -10km/hr

The speed at which the earth's surface moves because of the earth's rotation will then be equivalent to -10³ km/hr
