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? Through how many revolutions has it turned?

A drill, at its highest speed, rotates at 6500 rpm. If the drill takes 0.590 s to go from rest to full speed, how many revolutions does it make in that time? 1.92×103 rev 32.1 rev 202 rev 402 rev

In 2010, the Sikorsky's X2 helicopter became the world's fastest helicopter, flying at 249 miles per hour. When flying over 230 mph, the rotor speed is reduced from 446 to 360 RPM to keep tip speed below Mach 0.9. If each one of the six rotor blades is about 4.02 m long, how fast is the blade tip actually moving when the rotational speed is 360 RPM?
