You re out in space, on a rotating wheel-shaped space station of
radius 841 m. You feel planted firmly on the floor , due to
artificial gravity. The gravity you experience is Earth-normal,
that is, g = 9.81 m/s^2. How fast is the space station
rotating in order to produce this much artificial gravity? Express
your answer in revolutions per minute (rpm).
90.8 rpm
0.825 rpm
1.031 rpm
