A science-fiction tale describes an artificial "pla
,la;f8herdx l,4d1q q net" in the form of a band completely encircling a sun (Fig. 5-40). The inhabitants live on the inside surface (where it is always noon). Imagine that this sun is exactly like our own, that the dista
a q1;q4x8f r hd,ed,llnce to the band is the same as the Earth-Sun distance (to make the climate temperate), and that the ring rotates quickly enough to produce an apparent gravity of g as on Earth. What will be the period of revolution, this planet's year, in Earth days?
