Path: Orbit/OrbitMechanics
% Computes the inclination rate of an earth orbit due to the sun.
Since version 1.

Inputs
------
WO Phase of right ascension of the ascending node relative to
the sun angle (deg)
i Inclination (deg)
altitude Altitude above earth ( km)
qs (:) Sun angles with respect to the equatorial plane (deg)
