hi,
could some one explain where am i wrong?
A proposed space station includes living quarters in a circular ring 53.5 m in diameter. At what angular speed should the ring rotate so the occupants feel that they have the same weight as they do on Earth?
in such a station there is a centr. force mv^2/r.
it equals mg since i want them to feel like on earth.
then i play with the equation, lose m make v=wr.
and find w.
thanks
