A centrifuge is a device in which small container of material is rotated at a high speed on a circular path. Such a device is a used in medical laboratories, for instance, to cause the more dense red blood cells to settle through the less dense blood serum and collect at the bottom of the container. Suppose the centripetal acceleration of the sample is 6.60x10^3 times as large as the acceleration due to gravity. How many revolutions per minute is...
Steve was subjected to accelerations in a horizontal "centrifuge". It is considered that such a device has a radius of 5.0 m and can generate a centripetal acceleration equivalent to 7 times the average gravitational acceleration on Earth. a) For this maximum acceleration, what is the modulus of the astronaut's speed along the circular path? b) At how many revolutions per minute should the rotation occur to achieve such acceleration? c) What is the period of this rotation?
A sample of blood in a centrifuge has a centripetal acceleration that is 6.28×103 times as large as the acceleration due to gravity. How many revolutions per minute does the sample make if it is located at a radius of 5.43cm from the axis of rotation? Do not enter unit.
A fairgrounds ride spins its occupants inside a flying-saucer-shaped container. If the horizontal circular path the riders follow has a 6.00 m radius, at how many revolutions per minute will the riders be subjected to a centripetal acceleration 2.95 times that of gravity?
A fairgrounds ride spins its occupants inside a flying-saucer-shaped container. If the horizontal circular path the riders follow has a 7.00 m radius, at how many revolutions per minute will the riders be subjected to a centripetal acceleration 2.75 times that of gravity? rev/min
A fairgrounds ride spins its occupants inside a flying-saucer-shaped container. If the horizontal circular path the riders follow has a 8.00 m radius, at how many revolutions per minute will the riders be subjected to a centripetal acceleration 1.45 times that of gravity? rev/min
