NASA's Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California, houses a 200 centrifuge used to conduct research and training to solve real world problems related to the effects of acceleration on systems. It consists of a horizontal rail system with a 58-foot diameter mounted on a central axis, as shown in the figure below. An astronaut is using the centrifuge for training on high accelerations during spaceflight. The astronaut is seated 29.0 ft from the axis of rotation. At what rotation rate, in revolutions per second, will the astronaut experience a centripetal acceleration of 17.5g? 20 ft- KKKK 12 rev/s
