A gas rotates in a centrifuge. Taking into account that the field of centrifugal forces of inertia is equivalent to a gravitational field, write the expression for the barometric distribution in the centrifuge.

Answer»


SOLUTION :To solve the problem one should calculate the potential energy in the field of CENTRIFUGAL forces:
`U = -W = -1/2 FL = -1/2I_(ct) t = -1/2 m omega^2 r^2`.
Substituting it into FORMULA (26.26), we obtain the result sought.
