A rotating space station is said to create "artificlal gravity"a looselydefined term used for an acceleration that would be crudely similar to gravity. The outer wall of the rotating space station would become a floor for the astronauts, and centripetal acceleration supplied by the floor would allow astronauts to exercise and maintain muscle and bone strength more naturally than in nonrotating space environments. If the space station is m in diameter, what angular velocity would produce an "artificial gravity" of at the rim?
