Estimate the rate of rotation of the wheel

Reference no: EM13535869

A space station, in the form of a wheel 100 m in diameter, rotates to provide an "artificial gravity" of 2.10 m/s2 for persons who walk around on the inner wall of the outer rim. Find the rate of rotation of the wheel (in revolutions per minute) that will produce this effect.
