The circular blade on a saw has a diameter of 8.25 inches and rotates at 4300 revolutions per minute.
(a) Find the angular speed of the blade in radians per minute.
1 rev = 2pi radians
radians/min = 2pi*rpm
============================
(b) Find the linear speed of the saw teeth (in inches per minute) as they contact the wood being cut. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
= Circumference*rpm in/min
