An astronaut in low Earth orbit moves in (approximately) a big circle extending around the Earth. ... That can be interpreted as stating that in the astronaut's frame of reference, all bodies are subject to two forces, gravity and the centrifugal force, and the two are in perfect balance, adding up to zero. ... Wheel-shaped space . ... The science-fiction film "2001: A Space Odyssey" featured spinning space station, whose rotation provided the crew with "artificial gravity." ...

... 22.Reference Frames . ... Inertial Forces . 23a. The Centrifugal Force . ... When calculating the motions of the oceans and the atmosphere, it is much easier to use reference points on the rotating Earth and add a centrifugal force to all equations. ... The rest arises because the Earth is not a perfect sphere: the centrifugal force of its rotation causes its equator to bulge out , making the surface there more distant from the Earth s center and thus weakening the gravitational pull. ...

... Binary orbits in the acceleration/period plane . Circular Orbits . ... We first present the equations for the period and acceleration of a pulsar in an eccentric binary system as a function of its position in the orbit. ... In Freire, Kramer & Lyne (2001) (from where most of this text and following equations are taken), we describe in more detail how circular binary orbits can be determined from the observed periods and accelerations of the pulsar. ... where is the orbital period of the binary. ...

The VIRGO project is a physics experiment; its aim is the detection of gravitational waves. ... It has not yet been possible to detect directly the gravitational waves: it remains one of the major challenges of experimental physics. ... Interferometric antennas for gravitational waves Gravitational waves distort space-time: along two perpendicular directions, the distances between fixed points will increase (resp. decrease), at the arrival of a gravitational wave. ... Publications from our Group . ...

... In spite of the fact that the orbit assumes a zero gravity (the scientists count on it by growing super-clean crystals and other materials impossible on the earth), in fact, none spacecraft provides such conditions. ... This question is answered by the device developed by SSAU scientists - Micro-acceleration Compensation Space System (MCSS). ... Then, the computer will give commands to the magnets that compensate micro-accelerations. ... Tags: 'photon-m4' mcss . ... SAMARA STATE AEROSPACE UNIVERSITY...

To study theoretical predictions for possible violation of EEP the Thirring­Feynman field gravity theory (FGT) is considered [3], [4]. ... Using Lagrangian formalism of the relativistic field theory the post­Newtonian equation of translational motion for rotating bodies is derived in the frame of FGT. ... Thirring W.

Bubbles as in the bubbles found in soda, soft drinks, all flow upwards,when shaken .Is it possible that it would ever flow downwards? ... They "know" which way down is because that is the way gravity pulls them, and they tend to flow away from that direction. ... It is the acceleration of gravity that the bubbles feel, and they flow in the other direction. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... Under conditions of the Earth gravitation we are using the method of semi-natural simulation of linear accelerations in the centrifuges with a mobile cab for simulation of G-loads, originating in a space flight. ... The major factor of the orbital flight, affecting a cosmonaut, is a weightlessness state, which causes essential changes in cardiovascular and vestibular systems operation. ... Under the Earth conditions you can "execute" a short-term space flight according to the following cyclogram: . ...

... Speed of Gravity: ошибка Van Flandern? ... В работе Van Flandern The Speed of Gravity - What the Experiments Say есть такой фрагмент: By direct calculation from geometric ephemerides fitted to such observations, such as those published by the U.S. Naval Observatory or the Development Ephemerides of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the Earth accelerates toward a point 20 arc seconds in front of the visible Sun, where the Sun will appear to be in 8.3 minutes. ...

Appendix A: Derivation of the Secondary Sag as a Function of Telescope Altitude . One-half of the secondary support structure consists of the two rods shown in Figure 9 plus the opposing rods on the other side of the secondary cage. The total tension force on a single rod can be decomposed into a thermal component and a base tension that is set at the time when the rods are originally tensioned with the turnbuckles. ... The axial force balance equation is then given by . ...

... AT 39.3/119 Subject: Gravity Distortion Correction via Subreflector Motion This memo serves to document our interactions on your proposed gravity correction system. ... If you "best fit" the distortions to your design surface (see Levy, Structural Engineering of Microwave Antennas, IEEE Press, New York, 1996 Chapter 2) the worst case error over the elevation angles is 0.0455mm which gives 97.1% efficiency at 90 GHz. ...
