In the visually stunning scifi series "The Expanse", Earthlings established colonies on Mars that later fought a war for independence. The series toyed with a number of relevant physical concepts such as the coriolis force and differences in gravitational accelerations. According to the series, the ship, LDSS Nauvoo, later known as OPAS Behemoth and then Medina Station, is a generational ship constructed at Tycho Station. Cylindrical in shape, it measures just over two kilometers long. It was originally built to ferry Mormons over generations to another star system 12 light years away. Given the ship's radius to be 950. m wide, and the persons inside the ship's levels will walk/live primarily along the inner circumference of the ship, which would have an area just under the size of the state of Rhode Island (for help visualizing, draw a circle with a stick figure inside with feet on the circle edge and head pointing toward the center), answer the following: (a) What force acts as the centripetal force? type your answer... (b) Calculate the velocity required for persons inside the ship to achieve a 1g acceleration at the outer rim of the ship. type your answer... (c) Calculate the angular velocity. type your answer.... (d) Calculate the period of rotation of the ship in minutes. 3.23 min (e) Determine the magnitude of the acceleration at a hypothetical ship-level at half the ship radius. type your answer...
