A computer hard disk 8.0 cm in diameter is initially at rest. A small dot is painted on the edge of the disk. The disk accelerates at 700 rad/s^2 for 1/2s, then coasts at a steady angular velocity for another 1/2s.
What is the speed of the dot at t= 1.0 s?

A disk of radius 4.00 m spins with an angular speed of 90.0 degrees/second. What is the speed of the ladybug sitting halfway, in m/s?
The hammer throw was one of the earliest Olympic events. In this event, a heavy ball attached to a chain is swung several times in a circular path until it is released. The winning athlete is the one who throws the ball the greatest distance. The last complete rotation of 2016 Olympic champion Anita Włodarczyk’s final turn took only 0.43 s. The radius of the ball’s path, including her extended arms, was 2.1 m.a. What was the frequency of this rotation?b. What was the speed of the ball?c. What was the ball’s acceleration, in units of g?
