Since it's basic physics, how much power do you think is required to spin a cubic meter of water at 1g centrifugal force? How much energy is required to do that

Since it's basic physics, how much power do you think is required to spin a cubic meter of water at 1g centrifugal force? How much energy is required to do that for a year?
I'm pretty sure it's lots :) I think that we just haven't figured out how to do this, so the "obvious" solution is not on the table (yet).
- seaorg 5y agoYou should learn basic physics before you presume to know it... It’s not a question of power. You could could get it spinning quickly or slowly with high or low power respectively but the question you are trying to ask it how much energy is required. The amount of energy to get the thing spinning is the same no matter what. And once you get it spinning, you’re done. It will keep spinning. I think there is a certain law that pertains to that. Something to do with fig newtons. The amount of energy that is required is trivial compared to the other energy budgets. And it would be spun up at low power over the course of hours or days.
