Above the earth's atmosphere at an altitude of 393 km where the acceleration due to gravity is 8.70 m/s², a certain rocket has a total remaining mass of 287 kg and is directed 26° from the vertical. If the thrust T from the rocket motor is 3.8 kN and if the rocket nozzle is tilted through an angle of 1.5° as shown, calculate the angular acceleration a of the rocket and the acceleration ac of its mass center G. The rocket has a centroidal radius of gyration of 1.84 m. W ag G Answers: 3.1 m 1.5 T k rad/s2 j) m/s²
