Part A

To throw the discus, the thrower holds it with a fully outstretched

arm. Starting from rest, he begins to turn with a constant angular

acceleration, releasing the discus after making one complete

revolution. The diameter of the circle in which the discus moves

is about $1\mathrm{.}6m.$

If the thrower takes $1\mathrm{.}1s$ to complete one revolution, starting from rest, what will be the speed of the discus at release?

Express your answer in meters per second.

$\frac{m}{s}$

You may have substituted the diameter with the radius in the final expression. Recall that $1\mathrm{.}6m$ is the diameter of the trajectory.
