On an audio compact disc (CD), digital bits of information are encoded sequentially along a spiral path. Each bit occupies about 0.28 μm . A CD player's readout laser scans along the spiral's sequence of bits at a constant speed of about 1.2 m/s as the CD spins.
Determine the number N of digital bits that a CD player reads every second.

In a compact disc (CD), digital information is stored as a sequence of raised surfaces called "pits" and recessed surfaces called "lands". Both pits and lands are highly reflective and are embedded in a thick plastic material with index of refraction n = 1.55. As a 780-nm wavelength (in air) laser scans across the pit-land sequence, the transition between a neighboring pit and land is sensed by monitoring the intensity of reflected laser light from the CD. At the moment...

On a compact disc (CD), music is coded in a pattern of tiny pits arranged in a track that spirals outward toward the rim of the disc. As the disc spins inside a CD player, the track is scanned at a constant linear speed of v = 1.25 m/s. Because the radius of the track varies as it spirals outward, the angular speed of the disc must change as the CD is played. Let's see what angular acceleration is required...
