It has been suggested that rotating cylinders about 20.0 mi long and 5.49 mi in diameter be placed in space and used as colonies. What angular speed must such a cylinder have so that the centripetal acceleration at its surface equals the free-fall acceleration on Earth? rad/s
Hello, Can someone please show how to solve this problem? Thanks
Cross country runners must turn a corner around a tree obstacle, in the rain. a) The first runner takes a wide line to the tree and runs around a curve with a radius of 1.5 m and undergoes a radial acceleration of 10 m/s2. Determine their tangential velocity during the curve. b) The second runner is trying to catch up and so runs closer to the tree. If a loss of control (slip) occurs at a radial acceleration of 22 m/s2, does the runner manage to run around a curve with a radius of 0.50 m at a tangential velocity of 3.5 m/s?
A father fashions a swing for his children out of a long rope that he fastens to the limb of a tall tree. As one of the children swings from this rope that is 8.10 m long, his tangential speed at the bottom of the swing is 8.00 m/s. (a) What is the centripetal acceleration, in m/s2, of the child at the bottom of the swing? 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. An example of such a setup are Space Station V and the Discovery from the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey as shown below. If the space station is 1800 m in diameter, what angular velocity (in radians per second) would produce an artificial gravity similar to that on Earth inside the outer wall of the station?
Chapter 5 Problem 8: BIO Ultracentrifuge You are working in a biology lab and learning to use a new ultracentrifuge for blood tests. The specifications for the centrifuge say that a red blood cell rotating in the ultracentrifuge moves at and has a radial acceleration of 150,000 g’s (that is, 150,000 times ). The radius of the centrifuge is 0.15 m. You wonder if this claim is correct. Support your answer with a calculation.
An athlete swings a 3.30-kg ball horizontally on the end of a rope. The ball moves in a circle of radius 0.880 m at an angular speed of 0.610 rev/s. (a) What is the tangential speed of the ball? m/s (b) What is its centripetal acceleration? m/s² (c) If the maximum tension the rope can withstand before breaking is 91 N, what is the maximum tangential speed the ball can have? m/s
