At what speed must the chamber move

Reference no: EM13508488

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) studies the physiological effects of large accelerations on astronauts. Some of these studies use a machine known as a centrifuge. This machine consists of a long arm, to one end of which is attached a chamber in which the astronaut sits. The other end of the arm is connected to an axis about which the arm and chamber can be rotated. The astronaut moves on a circular path, much like a model airplane flying in a circle on a guideline. The chamber is located 19.0 m from the center of the circle. At what speed must the chamber move so that an astronaut is subjected to 2.48 times the acceleration due to gravity?
