A pitcher throws a curveball that reaches the catcher in 0.53 s. The ball curves as it is spinning at an average angular velocity of 315 rev/min (assumed constant) on its way to catcher's mitt. What is the angular displacement of the base ball (in radians) as it travels from the pitcher to the catcher?
