hello i am new to the forums. But I have been working on a packet of problems and I got them all done but i have been stuck on these two for a good hour. I have tried to search to internet for possible equations i could use but can't find any that will work or maybe i am just over looking them so i decided to post here and see what some other peoples thoughts are. But I am looking for some guidance on what equations to use.
~Thanks in advance
An Earth satellite is orbiting at a distance from the Earth's surface equal to one Earth radius (4000miles). At this location, the acceleration due to gravity is what factor times the value of g at the Earth's surface?
-thoughts
i think I am ight be using
F = GMm/r@2
where G is the universal gravitational constant.
G = 6.67*10-11 N-m2/kg2
and F = mg2. Homework Statement
What angular velocity (in revolutions/second) is needed for a centrifuge to produce an acceleration of 1000g at a radius arm of 15cm?
-thoughts
none at the moment
