Question

PLEASE GIVE MATLAB CODE.

Assume a Centaur V upper stage with an empty mass of 2,247 kg, diameter of 3.05 meters
and height of 12.68m, the wall thickness is 41mm, whereas the motor can be assumed to
fill up 1/4 of the inner volume. You can assume the density of the walls and the motor to
be uniform. You can assume the upper stage has been properly passivated and has no fuel
remaining
