A high-speed turntable is spinning initially at 600 rpm when a power failure occurs. The power
is off for 25.0 s, and during this time the turntable slows due to internal friction in its axle
bearings. During the time the power is off, the turntable makes 250 complete revolutions.
(a) At what rate (in rpm) is the turntable spinning when the power comes back on?
(b) How many radians has the turntable gone through during the 25.0 s the power is off?

The rod rotates about an axis that is at the opposite end of the sphere (see below). The system rotates horizontally about the axis at a constant 400 rev/min.
