A space station has the form of a hoop of radius R = 24 m, with mass M = 60000 kg. Initially its center of mass is not moving, but it is spinning. Then a small package of mass m = 14 kg is thrown by a spring-loaded gun toward a nearby spacecraft as shown in the figure, where θ = 34°; the package has a speed v = 300 m/s in space after the launch. Calculate the center-of-mass velocity of the space station after the launch:
