The angular momentum vector of a precessing gyroscope sweeps out a cone as shown in the figure below. The angular speed of the tip of the angular momentum vector, called its precessional frequency, is given by @p = t/L, where is the magnitude of the torque on the gyroscope and L is the magnitude of
its angular momentum. In the motion called precession of the equinoxes, the Earth's axis of rotation precesses about the perpendicular to its orbital plane with a period of 2.58 × 104 yr. Model the Earth as a uniform sphere and calculate the torque on the Earth that is causing this precession.

A space station shaped like a giant wheel has a radius of 121 m and a moment of inertia of 5.12 × 108 kg. m². A crew of 150 lives on the rim, and the station is rotating so that the crew experiences an apparent acceleration of 1g. When 100 people move to the center of the station for a union meeting, the
angular speed changes. What apparent acceleration is experienced by the managers remaining at the rim? Assume that the average mass of each inhabitant is 65.0 kg.

(a) An asteroid is in an elliptical orbit around a distant star. At its closest approach, the asteroid is 0.640 AU from the star and has a speed of 54.0 km/s. When the asteroid is at its farthest distance from the star of 39.0 AU, what is its speed (in km/s)? (1 AU is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun
and is equal to 1.496 × 1011 m. You may assume that other planets and smaller objects in the star system exert negligible forces on the asteroid.)
(No Response) km/s
(b) What If? A comet is in a highly elliptical orbit around the same star. The comet's greatest distance from the star is 23,300 times larger than its closest distance to the star. The comet's speed at its greatest distance is 2.10 x 10-2 km/s. What is the speed (in km/s) of the comet at its closest approach?
