Answer:
s = 405.27 m
Explanation:
given,
spin rate of the CD = 500 rpm
distance of dust, r = 4.3 cm
time = 3 minute = 3 x 60 = 180 s
total distance traveled by the dust, d = ?
[tex]\omega = 500\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}[/tex]
[tex]\omega = 52.36\ rad/s[/tex]
we know,
[tex]\Delta \theta = \omega\ t[/tex]
[tex]\Delta \theta =52.36\times 180[/tex]
[tex]\Delta \theta = 9424.8\ rad[/tex]
distance traveled by the dust particle
s = Δ θ x r
s = 9424.8 x 0.043
s = 405.27 m
Hence, distance traveled by the dust particle is 405.27 m
