7. A space agency decides to create a space station with a rotating section to mimic the affects of gravity. The radius of the ring is planned to be 50 m. a) Draw a free body diagnam in our neference frame outside the space station and oae in the reference frame of the astronaut inside the space station. b) Label each diagsam to be incrtial or non-inertial. c) What is the rotational period needed to mimic the Mars's gravity (g on Mars =3.72 m/s2 ? d) How would keeping the speed constant and shrinking the ring affect the forces felt by those inside? e) If the rotational period were to remain the same, find a new radius to make it feel like Earth's gravity.
