4) A stone with mass m = 2 g at the end of a massless string is swinging in a circle of radius R = 1.8 m with and angular velocity ω = 11 rad/s. a) Write an expression for the velocity v of the stone. b) Calculate the velocity of the stone, v in m/s. c) In order to travel in a circle, the direction the stones path must constantly be changing (curving inward). This constant change in direction towards the center of the circle is a center pointing acceleration called centripetal acceleration ac. Write an expression for the centripetal acceleration ac of the stone, in terms of the linear velocity. d) Calculate the centripetal acceleration of the stone, ac in m/s².
A rotating space station is said to create "artificial gravity"—a loosely-defined term used for an acceleration that would be crudely similar to gravity. The outer wall of the rotating space station would become a floor for the astronauts, and centripetal acceleration supplied by the floor would allow astronauts to exercise and maintain muscle and bone strength more naturally than in non-rotating space environments. If the space station is 210 m in diameter, what angular velocity would produce an "artificial gravity" of 9.80 m/s2 at the rim? ________ rpm

Newton further estimated, likely based on the density of rocks, that the Earth was a solid sphere with a density about 6 times the density of water, which has density of pwater = 1 g/cm³.
