Grandpa stills plays his old 78's on an antique Victrola. If the records are 10.0 inches in diameter and the 78 refers to the number of revolutions per minute, what is the centripetal acceleration (in m/s?) of a dust particle on the edge of a rotating record? (Hint: 1 revolution = 1 cycle = 1 circumference of travel) Use: 1.00 inch = 2.54 cm (exact)
