Program Plan Intro
Given Information:
A rotating disk in which number of bits per track is constant is given.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Capacity of disk:
It is given that there is a rotating disk whose number of bits per track is constant. It is assumed that:
“r” denotes the radius of the platter and “
- In a rotating disk, the number of bits per track will remain same which depends on the circumference of the innermost track.
- The most inner track can also be considered as a hole and the number of bits per track will increase if the hole is large and vice versa.
Hence, according to the given information:
“r” denotes the radius of the platter and “
In a rotating disk, the radius of platter is greater than the radius of the hole which can be written as below:
Hence, the value of x should be less than 1 in order to maximize the capacity of the disk and the value of x ranges from “

Suppose you are asked to design a rotating disk where the number of bits per track is constant. You know that the number of bits per track is determined by the circumference of the innermost track, which you can assume is also the circumference of the hole. Thus, if you make the hole in the center of the disk larger, the number of bits per track increases, but the total number of tracks decreases. If you let r denote the radius of the platter, and x · r the radius of the hole, what value of x maximizes the capacity of the disk?
Suppose we construct two quaternions 91 and 92 which rotate about the same unit vector. The angle of
rotation for 91 is 79 degrees and the angle of rotation for 92 is 158 degrees. To perform spherical linear
interpolation between the two quaternions using
sin(to)
slerp(t, 91, 92)
sin((1 − t)0)
sin(0)
91 +
92
sin(0)
what angle should be used for 0? If you are not sure, consider building two quaternions using the above
angles and working through the problem...The answer should be expressed as a number of degrees.
You are given a text file of size 60 MB, which is to be encrypted using steganography in the low-order bits of each color in an image file.
What size image would be required in order to encrypt the entire file?
What size would be needed if the file were first compressed to a third of its original size?
Give your answer in pixels, and show your calculations.
Assume that the images have an aspect ratio of 3:2, for example, 3000 × 2000 pixels.
