When discussing relativity and how time slows down as you approach light speed the example used is always, “If you went on a 20-year trip in space at light speed, thousands of years would pass back on earth…”etc. My question is really a thought experiment: If you had a centrifuge capable of spinning at near [...]

To withstand “g-forces” of up to 10 g’s, caused by suddenly pulling out of a steep dive, an air force pilots train on a “human centrifuge.” 10 g’s is an acceleration of 98 m/s^2. If the length of the centrifuge arm is 12 m, what speed is the pilot moving when he experiences 10 g’s [...]

A laboratory technician is centrifuging a blood sample at an angular speed of 3000rpm. If the radius of the circular path followed by the sample is 15cm. Find the speed of the sample is cm/s and in mi/h. Why do particles separate from the solution in a centrifuge?
