In a laboratory test of tolerance for high acceleration, a pilot is swung in a circle 12.0 m in diameter. It is found that the pilot
blacks out when he is spun at 30.6 rpm (rev/min).
At what acceleration (in SI units) does the pilot black out?
acceleration:
m/s?
Express this acceleration in terms of a multiple of g.
