(a) What is its angular speed about its center of mass? (b) What is its rotational kinetic energy? (c) What is its angular momentum?
Center of Mass: Consider the sun and its largest planet Jupiter. On the line joining them, how far from the center of the sun is their center mass? Is it within or outside the sun? (Jupiter-sun distance is 778 × 106 km, diameter of the sun is 1.4 × 106 km, the sun is 1000 times as massive as Jupiter)
