    How Do You Calculate the Rotation Rate of a Space Station Wheel?

    Hey thanks for the reply. I retried the the computation with the 2π conversion factor that I forgot on my first try. And my answer is a little closer but still no cigar. The answer in the book is 2.14rev/min I got .084388. Oh and I'm not reallly familiar with that other formula, what...

    How Do You Calculate the Rotation Rate of a Space Station Wheel?

    Homework Statement Basically the problem is asking me to find the rate of rotation of a space station that is in the shape of a wheel 120m in diameter, and rotates to provide an "artificial gravity" of 3.00 m/s. And it has to be in rev/min. Homework Equations The only equation so...
