Now we have a rod-shaped space station of length 1407 m and mass 4.47 x 10^6 kg, which can change its length (kind of like an old-fashioned telescope), without changing its overall mass. Suppose that the station is initially rotating at a constant rate of 2.35 rpm. If the length of the rod is reduced to 2.35 m, what will be the new rotation rate of the space station?
