- Consider a non-rotating space station in the shape of a long thin uniform rod of mass 4.08 x 10^6 kg and length 1012 meters. Rocket motors on both ends of the rod are ignited, applying a constant force of F = 2.97 x 10^5 N to each end of the rod as shown in the diagram, causing the station to rotate about its center. If the motors are left running for 2 minutes and 39 seconds before shutting off, then how fast will the station be rotating when the engines stop? 0.79 rpm 1.57 rpm 2.04 rpm 1.31 rpmarrow_forwardThe figure above is taken from one of the Webassign HW problems which shows a person held up against a wall of a circularly moving ride in which the floor drops away.
