A proposed space station consist set of a circular tube that will rotate about its center (like a tubular bicycle tire), Fig. 5-39. The circle formed by the he told Uber has a diameter of 1.1 km. What must be the rotation speed (revolution still per day) if an effect nearly equal to gravity at the surface of the Earth (say, 0.90 g) is to be felt?
An engineer must design a curved exit ramp for a highway in such a way that a car, exiting at the posted speed limit of 11.18 m/s (25 mi/hr), does not depend on friction to round the curve without skidding. The radius of the curve is 229.0 m. At what angle with respect to the horizontal must the curve be banked (in degrees)?
A curve of radius 110 m is banked at an angle of 17.4 °. At what speed can it be negotiated under icy conditions where friction is negligible?
