″Playing a record? I’ll show you something interesting… Compare a point on the label with a point on the record’s outer edge.

They both make a complete circle in the same amount of time. Right?

Yeah!

But the point on the record’s edge has to make a bigger circle in the same time. So it goes faster. you See, two points on one disc move at two speeds eventhough they both make the same revolutions per minute!″
