A spherical asteroid with radius r = 123 m and mass M = 2.40×1010 kg rotates about an axis at four revolutions per day. A "tug" spaceship attaches itself to a vehicle which follows the asteroid's south pole (as defined by the axis of rotation) and fires its engine, applying a force tangentially to the asteroid's surface keeping the direction of the force in the same plane. The initial situation is shown in the figure. (Figure 1). If F = 265 N, how long will it take the tug to rotate the asteroid's axis of rotation through an angle of 12.0 ∘ by this method?
A bicycle is turned upside down while its owner repairs a flat tire. A friend spins the other wheel and observes that drops of water fly off tangentially. She measures the heights reached by drops moving vertically (see figure below). A drop that breaks loose from the tire on one turn rises vertically 56.0 cm above the tangent point. A drop that breaks loose on the next turn rises 46.0 cm above the tangent point. The radius of the wheel is 0.395 m. (a) Why does the first drop rise higher than the second drop? (b) Neglecting air friction and using only the observed heights and the radius of the wheel, find the wheel's angular acceleration (assuming it to be constant). (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer. Take the clockwise direction to be positive.)rad/s2

A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star. The Crab nebula pulsar in the constellation Taurus has a period of 33.5×10−333.5×10^-3 s, radius 10 km. And suppose its mass is 2.1×10302.1×10^30 kg. The pulsar's rotational period will increase over time due to the release of electromagnetic radiation, which doesn't change its radius but reduces its rotational energy. A.
