QUESTION: Part A: A Ferris wheel has diameter of 5.1 m and makes one revolution in 5.9 seconds. A person weighing 696 N is sitting on one of the benches attached at the rim of the wheel. What is the apparent weight (that is, the normal force exerted on her by the bench) of the person as she passes through the highest point of her motion? Part B: Future space stations will create an artificial gravity by rotating. Consider a...
Question # 1 An 87.0 kg spacewalking astronaut pushes off a 640 kg satellite, exerting a 115 N force for the 0.590 s it takes him to straighten his arms. How far apart are the astronaut and the satellite after 1.20 min ? Question # 2 It is proposed that future space stations create an artificial gravity by rotating. Suppose a space station is constructed as a 1200-m-diameter cylinder that rotates about its axis. The inside surface is the deck...
what is the period of rotation
gure shows a space station. It has the shape of a hollow ring, with diameter D = 480 m. Review Part A The space station rotates in order to simulate Earth's gravity - so that the normal force on an astronaut at the outer edge would be the astronaut's weight on Earth. What is the period of the rotation Time for one complete revolution needed to achieve this? Express your answer to 2 significant...
Q3: As people envision moving out into space in the future, one possibility is living in some sort of space station and not on a planet. But without a planet, yoiu would have continual weightlessness which is not tolerated very long by the human body. One way to get around this is to imagine taking a very large diameter tube and bending it into a circle (like a doughnut). The people would live inside the tube and you could create...
