It is proposed that future space stations create an artificial gravity by rotating. suppose a space station is constructed as a 1600-m-diameter cylinder that rotates about its axis. the inside surface is the deck of the space station. what rotation period will provide "normal"gravity?

Answer

given,

diameter of the cylinder = 1600 m

radius = 800 m                                  

acceleration due to gravity  = 9.8 m/s²

a = r ω²                                                  

we know time period                      

T = 57.12 s                              

the force represented by vector a is normal force. if the hockey puck is moving to the right, when it is hit with a significant force by the hockey stick the puck will move off in a different direction. correct on edge.
