The International space Station is currently under construction. Eventually, simulaced earth gravity may become a reality on the space station.What would the gravitational  field through the central axis be like under these conditions?

  1. zero
  2. $0.25 g$
  3. $0.5 g$
  4. $0.75 g$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

In a rotating space station designed to simulate gravity, the artificial gravity is created by centrifugal force. At the central axis of rotation, the radius is zero, so the centrifugal force (and thus the simulated gravitational field) is zero.

Validation of programs is used to check that data is

  1. In right format

  2. Of right type

  3. Within possible value ranges

  4. All of above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Data validation is a process of ensuring data have undergone data cleansing to ensure they have data quality i.e they are both correct and useful. Apart from data cleansing the data must be within possible value range that ensures smooth and effective functioning of the space satellite. Hence all the three option are correct.
