Compact Disc. A compact disc (CD) stores music in a coded pattern of tiny pits 10−7 m deep. The pits are arranged in a track that spirals outward toward the rim of the disc; the inner and outer radii of this spiral are 25.0 mm and 58.0 mm, respectively. As the disc spins inside a CD player, the track is scanned at a constant linear speed of 1.25 m/s. (a) What is the angular speed of the CD when the innermost part of the track is scanned? The outermost part of the track? (b) The maximum playing time of a CD is 74.0 min. What would be the length of the track on such a maximum-duration CD if it were stretched out in a straight line? (c) What is the average

- A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star that emits radio pulses, one such pulse for each rotation of the star. The period T of rotation is the time for one rotation. It is found by measuring the time between pulses. At present, the pulsar in the central region of the Crab nebula has a period of rotation of T = 0.033 s, and this is observed to be increasing at the rate of 1.26 x 10-5 s/y. What is the value of the angular acceleration in rad/s2? If its angular acceleration is constant, how many years from now will the pulsar stop rotating? The pulsar originated in a supernova explosion seen in the year A.D. 1054. What was T of the pulsar when it was born? (Assume constant angular acceleration since then.)arrow_forwardFind the angular speed a CD must have to give a linear speed of 1.25 m/s when the laser beam shines on a disk 0.25 m from its center .arrow_forwardTwo particles of masses M1=2Kg and M2=3Kg are attached to the ends of a 2.4 meter long light (massless) rigid rod.
