Answer:
983.400345675 hits per second
Explanation:
Radius = 14.2 cm
Record turn rate = 33 rev/min
Bump separation = 0.499 mm
Circumference of the record = [tex]2\pi 0.142=0.89221231362\ m[/tex]
Number of bumps in the groove = [tex]\dfrac{0.89221231362}{0.499\times 10^{-3}}=1788.0006285\ bumps[/tex]
The rate which the bumps hit the stylus = [tex]33\times\dfrac{1788.0006285}{60}=983.400345675[/tex]
The rate at which the bumps hit the stylus 983.400345675 hits per second
