You are designing a spaceship, and you want it to have an artificial gravity of 9.8 m/s2 at the center of mass of an average human. The average human has a center of gravity that is about 90 cm above their feet. Through other engineering constraints, you have determined the rotational speed of the ship to be 0.2 rad/s. What should the radius of the ship be (in m)? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number!)
