Randall D. Knight β€” Kinematics in Two Dimensions: Problem Problem_65

A typical laboratory centrifuge rotates at 4000 rpm. Test tubes have to be placed into a centrifuge very carefully because of the very large accelerations. a. What is the acceleration at the end of a test tube that is 10 cm from the axis of rotation? b. For comparison, what is the magnitude of the acceleration a test tube would experience if dropped from a height of 1.0 m and stopped in a 1.0-ms-long encounter with a hard floor?

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 4000 rpm, . a, 10 cm, 1.0 m
