It is proposed that future space stations create an artificial gravity by rotating. Suppose a space station is constructed as a diameter cylinder that rotates about its axis. The inside surface is the deck of the space station. What rotation period will provide 鈥渘ormal鈥 gravity?
A model rocket is resting horizontally at the top edge of a -high wall when it is accidentally bumped. The bump pushes it off the edge with a horizontal speed of m/s and at the same time causes the engine to ignite. When the engine fires, it exerts a constant horizontal thrust away from the wall.
a. How far from the base of the wall does the rocket land?
b. Describe the rocket鈥檚 trajectory as it travels to the ground
A 60 g ball is tied to the end of a 50-cm-long string and swung in a vertical circle. The center of the circle, as shown in FIGURE P8.57, is 150 cm above the floor. The ball is swung at the
minimum speed necessary to make it over the top without the string going slack. If the string is released at the instant the ball is at the top of the loop, how far to the right does the ball hit the ground?

While at the county fair, you decide to ride the Ferris wheel. Having eaten too many candy apples and elephant ears, you find the motion somewhat unpleasant. To take your mind off your stomach, you wonder about the motion of the ride. You estimate the radius of the big wheel to be , and you use your watch to find that each loop around takes .
a. What are your speed and the magnitude of your acceleration?
b. What is the ratio of your weight at the top of the ride to your weight while standing on the ground?
c. What is the ratio of your weight at the bottom of the ride to your weight while standing on the ground?
In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, an electron (mass )orbits a proton at a distance of . The proton pulls on the electron with an electric force of. How many revolutions per second does the electron make?
