    SPACE's Top Speed

    This all works out Right, this is probably all true, b/c if the circumference is indeed 185 feet, the radius would be about 9 m (in metric units), and the linear velocity would be about 15 m/s (assuming 16 rpms). The formula for centripetal force is mv^2/r, where m is mass, v is linear...

    Electricty consumption

    Energy consumption Not to be too picky... :) A megawatt is a unit of power, which is energy/unit time. Thus megawattage is an indication of how much energy can be put out per second. Disney may very well require 10 megawatts in order to power all of its electricity needs, but that's not...
