### Angular Speed and Linear Speed Problems

#### Problem 33
**Question:**
At a certain instant, a compact disc is rotating at 210 rpm. What is its angular speed in rad/s? **Show work.**

**Options:**
A) 11 rad/s  
B) 22π rad/s  
C) 45 rad/s  
D) 69 rad/s  
E) 660 rad/s

**Explanation:**
To find the angular speed in radians per second (rad/s) from the given revolutions per minute (rpm), use the conversion factor:
\[ 1 \, \text{rpm} = \frac{2π \, \text{rad}}{60 \, \text{s}} \]

#### Problem 34
**Question:**
A child is riding a merry-go-round that is turning at 7.18 rpm. If the child is standing 4.65 m from the center of the merry-go-round, how fast is the child moving? **Show work.**

**Options:**
A) 5.64 m/s  
B) 3.50 m/s  
C) 0.556 m/s  
D) 1.75 m/s  
E) 1.80 m/s

**Explanation:**
To find the linear speed (v) of the child, we first need to find the angular speed (ω) in rad/s:
\[ ω = 7.18 \, \text{rpm} \times \frac{2π \, \text{rad}}{60 \, \text{s}} = 0.75 \, \text{rad/s} \]

Then use the formula for linear speed:
\[ v = ω \times r \]
where \( r \) is the radius (4.65 m).

**Solution:**
\[ ω = 7.18 \times \frac{2π}{60} \approx 0.75 \, \text{rad/s} \]
\[ v = 0.75 \times 4.65 \approx 3.49 \, \text{m/s} \]

Thus the closest answer is:
B) 3.50 m/s
