Solved: Stabilization of the Hubble Space Telescope. The
Chapter 10, Problem 10.56(choose chapter or problem)
Stabilization of the Hubble Space Telescope. The Hubble Space Telescope is stabilized to within an angle of about 2-millionths of a degree by means of a series of gyroscopes that spin at 19,200 rpm. Although the structure of these gyroscopes is actually quite complex, we can model each of the gyroscopes as a thin-walled cylinder of mass 2.0 kg and diameter 5.0 cm, spinning about its central axis. How large a torque would it take to cause these gyroscopes to precess through an angle of degree during a 5.0-hour exposure of a galaxy?
