An amusement park builds a ride in which the victim is made to spin about a pole with a rocket strapped on his seat. The rider, box and rocket have an initial total mass of 210 kg. Neglect the mass of the rod of length 4 m. 1.) What is the moment of inertia of rider, box and rocket about the pole? 2.) The rocket develops a thrust of 77 N perpendicular to the path of the rider. What is the initial angular acceleration of the rider? 3.) After what time t is the rider’s velocity equal to 7 m/s?
