The outside edge of a spinning compact disc is moving at a higher velocity than an inside track on the disc. Is this true or false?

Respuesta :

ANSWER:

True

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We have that the speed of a particle in circular motion is given by the equation:

[tex]v=r\omega[/tex]

Where r is the distance from the point to the center of rotation, therefore the greater the distance, the speed is greater, which means that the outer edge moves at a higher speed than the rest of the disk.

Therefore, the statement is true.
