In the movies you often see space stations with “artificial gravity.” They look like big doughnuts rotating around an axis perpendicular to the plane of the doughnut (see Figure Q4.21). People walking on the outer rim inside the turning space station feel the same gravitational effects as if they were on Earth. How does such a station work to simulate artificial gravity?
