    A question about Change in Momentum

    I have an answer to this question and then a question: A car with a mass of 1,000kg moves at 20 m/s. What is the braking force needed to bring the car to a halt in 10s. I used m2v2-m1v1 and came up with -20,000 kg(m/s) then -20,000kg(m/s)/10s I came up with -2,000 N Is this right...

    Calculate RPM of 100m Diameter Space Habitat for Simulated Gravity

    Ok so maybe I do want ya'll to do this for me because I have no idea what to do with any of the information given because I get .55 RPM and I know that is WAY off

    Calculate RPM of 100m Diameter Space Habitat for Simulated Gravity

    thanks for your response. I am confused because I wasn't given the mass of the station just the diameter, so how do I get the centripetal acceleration without mass? I am especially confused because I don't know what to do with 2(pi)/60 rad/sec. I could work with the 60 rad/sec but the 2(pi)...

    Calculate RPM of 100m Diameter Space Habitat for Simulated Gravity

    So i was presented this question and I would not even like the answer but just the path to walk on. Can you help? In order to simulate the Earth gravity on a space habitat of 100m diameter, what spin rate of a donut-shape space habitat, in terms of RPM, should be. conversion of RPM is...
