Uniform Circular Motion: A disk-shaped space station 125 m in diameter spins at a uniform rate about an axis through its center and perpendicular to the plane of the disk. If the acceleration of a point on the rim of the disk is to be equal to g, how long does it take for the station to make one revolution? Use g = 9.8 m/s2.

Is often called the fully-implicit form of the one-dimensional transient conduction difference equation because all quantities in the equation, except for the temperatures in the energy storage term, are evaluated at the new time step, m + 1. In an alternate form called Crank-Nicholson, these quantities are evaluated at both time step m and m + 1 and then averaged. This averaging significantly improves the accuracy of the numerical solution relative to the fully-implicit form without increasing the complexity of the solution method. Derive the one-dimensional transient conduction difference equation in the Crank-Nicholson form.
