Homework Statement
A proposed space station includes living quarters in a circular ring 61.0 m in diameter. At what angular speed should the ring rotate so the occupants feel that they have the same weight as they do on Earth?
Homework Equations
Angular speed = radians/second
The Attempt at a Solution
I am unsure of what they mean when it states the same weight as on Earth, does that mean the centripetal acceleration would be equal to gravity?
