We have a non-rotating space station in the shape of a long thin
uniform rod of mass 7.00 x 10^6 kg and length 1197 meters. Small
probes of mass 9047 kg are periodically launched in pairs from two
points on the rod-shaped part of the station as shown, launching at
a speed of 4309 m/s with respect to the launch points, which are
each located 410 m from the center of the rod. After 19 pairs of
probes have launched, how fast will the station be
spinning? (diagram shown below)
1.) 2.78 rpm
2.) 1.95 rpm
3.) 9.02 rpm
4.) 6.94 rpm
