Question
Human centrifuges are often used to simulate different acceleration levels for pilots. When aerospace physiologists say that a pilot is pulling 9 g,s , they mean that the resultant normal force on the pilot from the bottom of the seat is nine times their weight. Knowing that the centrifuge starts from rest and has a constant angular acceleration of 1.5 RPM per second until the pilot is pulling 9 g's and then continues with a constant angular velocity, determine (a) how long it will take for the pilot to reach 9 g's (b) the angle 0 of the normal force once the pilot reaches 9 g’s. Assume that the force parallel to the seat is zero.

The larger disk has a mass of 3 kg and radius of 76 cm. The pulley is mounted on a frictionless axle that runs through the center of the smaller disk and the midpoint between the center and edge of the larger disk. A rope is wrapped around the smaller disk such that it does not slip. Use work-energy principles to determine how far the hanging mass has fallen when the kinetic energy of the pulley is 250 J, if the system started at rest. d marrow_forward
