Answer

$2.5\times 10^{-3}\ rad/s$

Work Step by Step

Given: Radius of circular turn $ r = 3220 km= 3220 \times 10^{3} m$ Speed of spaceship $v = 29000\ km/h =29000\times \frac{1000m}{3600 s }=8055.55\ m/s$ Therefore, the angular speed is; $\omega = \frac{v}{r}$ $\omega = \frac{8055.55\ m/s}{3220 \times 10^{3} m}$ $\omega = 2.5\times 10^{-3}\ rad/s$
