If the rotation of a planet of radius 4.42 x 10° m and free-fall acceleration .2 7.9 m/s increased to the point that the cen- tripetal acceleration was equal to the gravita- tional acceleration at the equator, what would be the tangential speed of a person standing at the equator? Answer in units of m/s.

As their booster rockets separate, Space Shuttle astronauts typically feel accelerations up to 3g, where g = 9.80 m/s2. In their training, astronauts ride in a device where they experience such an acceleration as a centripetal acceleration. Specifically, the astronaut is fastened securely at the end of a mechanical arm, which then turns at constant speed in a horizontal circle. Determine the rotation rate, in revolutions per second, required to give an astronaut a centripetal acceleration of 3.00g while in circular motion with radius 9.45 m.
