Refer to Example 10.3 concerning the deflection from the plumb line of a particle falling in Earth's gravitational field. Take g to be defined at ground level and use the zeroth order result for the time-of-fall, T= V2h/g. Perform a calculation in second approximation (i.e., retain terms in w?) and calculate the southerly deflec- tion. There are three components to consider: (a) Coriolis force to second order (C), (b) variation of centrifugal force with height (C2), and (c) variation of gravi- tational force with height (Cs). Show that each of these components gives a result equal to h2 o sin A cos A with C 2/3, C2 5/6, and Cs = 5/2. The total southerly deflection is therefore (4h-w² sin A cos A)/g. toarrow_forward
