According to a recent finding, it would appear that 70 million years ago, the Earth was spinning a bit more rapidly than it is today, and the day was 30 minutes shorter than it is now. What has been the magnitude of the Earth's average angular acceleration over the past 70 million years? 1.55 x 102 rad/s2 1 6.09 x 10 21 rad/s? 3.18 x 1022 rad/s2 3. 7.05 x 1022 rad/s? 4

An ultracentrifuge accelerates uniformly from rest to 100,000 rpm in 2.0 min. If this ultracentrifuge accelerates 4.0 seconds starting from rest, what is the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration in unit of gravitational acceleration g for your sample sitting at 4.0 cm from the center axis? Use g = 9.8 m/s2. Hint: compute the centripetal acceleration in unit of m/s2 first, then divided by g will be your answer. For example, if your centripetal acceleration is 19.6 m/s2, your answer measured in unit of g is 2.0.

We have a rod-shaped space station of length 687m and mass 5.35 x 10^6 kg, which can change its length (kind of like an old-fashioned telescope), without changing its overall mass. Suppose that the station is initially rotating at a constant rate of 2.26 rpm. If the length of the rod is reduced to 2.26m, what will be the new rotation rate of the space station? 4.38 rpm 7.50 rpm 3.50 rpm 6.25 rpm
