A space station shaped like a giant wheel has a radius 96 m and a moment of inertia of 4.96 108 kg·m2. A crew of 150 lives on the rim, and the station is rotating so that the crew experiences an apparent acceleration of 1 g. When 100 people move to the center of the station for a union meeting, the angular speed changes. What acceleration is experienced by the managers remaining at the rim? Assume that the average mass of each inhabitant is 65.0 kg.
