A future use of space stations may be to provide hospitals for severely burned persons. it is very painful for a badly burned pe

rson on earth to lie in bed. in a space station, the effect of gravity can be reduced or even eliminated. how long should each rotation take (in minutes) for a doughnut-shaped hospital of 200-m radius so that persons on the outer perimeter would experience 1/10 the normal gravity of earth?

<span>1.5 minutes per rotation. The formula for centripetal force is A = v^2/r where A = acceleration v = velocity r = radius So let's substitute the known values and solve for v. So F = v^2/r 0.98 m/s^2 = v^2/200 m 196 m^2/s^2 = v^2 14 m/s = v So we need a velocity of 14 m/s. Let's calculate how fast the station needs to spin. Its circumference is 2*pi*r, so C = 2 * 3.14159 * 200 m C = 1256.636 m And we need a velocity of 14 m/s, so 1256.636 m / 14 m/s = 89.75971429 s Rounding to 2 significant digits gives us a rotational period of 90 seconds, or 1.5 minutes.</span>

__________ curves help lessen the effect of the force of the forward motion on your vehicle as it enters the curve.
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Banked

Explanation:

Banked curves are formed when the inner edge is below the outer edge.

It is done in order to ensure the reliability of the frictional force as it varies when the road is wet wet or oily. Thus in order to avoid these problems the curved roads are banked.

Banking of the curve provides the necessary centripetal force, i.e., the horizontal component of the normal reaction force to keep the vehicle i motion and thus helps in reducing the effect of the forward motion force on the vehicle.

How much force is required to pull a spring 3.0 cm from
avanturin [10]

Answer:

I know that T= kx where T is the tension which equaka the force og gravity = mg = 1.37 * 10 = 13.7 x is the elongation of the spring so the length after dangling the object minus the original length.

I hope it helps

plz let me know if it is wrong or right.

Suggest reasons why poaching for subsistence is likely to be less damaging to the biodiversity of an area than poaching for prof
dlinn [17]
An example for ruining a biodiversity is fishing. The two factors that have contributed to increased fishing in deep ocean waters in recent years are the human population growth and decreased fishing opportunities inshore. Increase population growth increases the demand for food which also leads to increase in fish demand. Because the fish demand is high, inshore fishing opportunities decrease that is why deep ocean waters is the new venue for fishing. This may sound absurd but poaching for subsistence is likely to be less damaging to he biodiversity <span>of an area than poaching for profit. Because the people do not care anymore to the biodiversity that they interrupted just to get back more profit. They do not care what must be taken from it like getting bigger fishes and leaving the smaller ones behind to maintain productivity.</span>
