You can put this solution on YOUR website! A printing press has a roller 17 inches in diameter. The speed of a point on the rollers surface moves at 58 feet per second. What is the rollers angular speed?
-----------------------------------
circumference = (pi)d = 17(pi)inches = (17/36)pi ft
-------------------------
# of revolutions per second = 58/[17pi/36] = 39.1
----
angular speed = 39.1(2pi) rad/sec = 78.2pi rad/sec
