A mouse steps onto the edge of a disk of radius R that is
spinning at a constant angular speed of 
, rad/second
(assume counterclockwise rotation). The mouse moves with the
constant velocity 
towards the cheese,
located at the center of the rotating disk.
(a) Derive a differential equation for the path of the mouse in polar coordinates.
(b) How many revolutions will the disk make before the mouse
gets the cheese? The solution should be in terms of 
, , and .
(c) What is the total distance the mouse will travel?

A disk with a diameter of 0.08 m is spinning with a constant velocity about an axle perpendicular to the disk and running through its center. At this same frequency, what is the period of rotation of this \"halfway point\"? T = How long does it take a point on the edge of the disk to travel 1 km?
