Answer:
w = 0.196 rad / s
Explanation:
To generate an acceleration similar to that of the earth, the station's centripetal acceleration must be equal to the acceleration due to gravity.
a_c = v² / r = w² r
a_c = g
we substitute
g = w² r
w² = g / r
w = [tex]\sqrt { \frac{g}{r} }[/tex]
let's calculate
w = √9.8/50
w = 0.196 rad / s
therefore the station must rotate at that angular velocity so that the acceleration in the outer wall is equal to the ratio of gravity
