"Spin rate" refers to how fast an object, like a ball, is spinning. It is measured in revolutions per minute (RPM). Higher
spin rate means the object is rotating quickly, while lower
spin rate means it is rotating slower.
Spin rate can affect the motion and behavior of the object, especially in sports like baseball or golf, where it can influence the ball's trajectory, accuracy, and movement.

However, if the sun formed before space was stretched out, its
slow spin rate today would not be unusual.
For one thing, its
estimated spin rate seems too low to create useful amounts of «artificial gravity» for anything onboard.
It's tough to describe black -
hole spin rates because they don't really translate into familiar terms, such as miles per hour.

high spin rate on him to catch their attention.
says those who like a high
spin rate on their wedge shots will appreciate the extra groove Ping placed on the 56 -, 58 -, and 60 - degree wedges in the Stealth family, which generates a greater loft and control, even when you strike the ball low on the club face.
Superimposed on that long - term trend, though, are small decade - to - decade variations
in spin rate.
The club faces on all irons have grooves, but the grooves on wedges usually feature special designs, which help to create a higher
spin rate for the ball,
Clayton Kershaw is doing a dugout interview now, and apparently he doesn't know anything
about spin rate and all the happy advanced stuff Rich Hill uses to thrive.
In the new study, Done and her team estimated that the black hole found 500 million light - years away — which is powering a superluminous «active galactic nucleus» known as PG1244 +026 — has a relatively
low spin rate.
The spiralling in of such a closely orbiting planet is to be expected, as gravitational tugs between the two bodies will boost the star's
spin rate at the expense of the planet's orbital energy.
The team's model suggests that stems from a slower deceleration rate for Earth's spin at the time, which affected the total amount of rotational momentum in the Earth - moon system and thus how rapidly the moon's
spin rate decelerates, among other things.
Changes in the atoms»
spin rate correspond to an oscillation in the DC magnetic fields, creating alternating current (AC) electronic signals, or voltages at the light detector, which are more useful for communications.
«The next step for science is to measure the spin of a black hole,» Ghisellini says, to see
whether spin rate is related to jet power.
If the asteroid's
spin rate became fast enough, Jewitt said, the asteroid's weak gravity would no longer be able to hold it together.
The scientists tracked the spin of 30 stars,
whose spin rates ranged from four days to 23 days, in a 2.5 billion - year - old cluster known as NGC 6819 and discovered that the older a star gets, the slower it spins.
A fortuitious lineup of cosmic objects allowed scientists to measure the mind -
boggling spin rate.
The complete quote is «Were angular momentum conserved this would lead to
ridiculous spin rates, so it has long been known that angular momentum must be lost» -LRB-!)
These drives are capable of running at a fast 7,200
rpm spin rate 24/7 without having to worry about drive failure.
Gyrochronology, a term based on the Ancient Greek words for spin (gyro), time (chronos), and study (logos), is the measure of
spin rates of stars, in an effort to measure the age of the stellar body.
The metrics show a pitch in decline — in velocity,
in spin rate, and in how hitters square it up.
When the seas are 125m lower than today, the
slowest spin rate would allow more constant heating of each area of the earth; the ices would begin to melt and the earth would begin to speed up with greater sea area.
Today's Golfer says those who like a high
spin rate on their wedge shots will appreciate the extra groove Ping placed on the 56 -, 58 -, and 60 - degree wedges in the Stealth family, which generates a greater loft and control, even when you strike the ball low on the club face.
Pros: Impressive design of grooves on the club face for
higher spin rate, great looking wedges that pro players use, multiple options for loft to allow for more full swing shots, should receive added distance
I havent looked but I suspect that the cutter has a
lower spin rate and is easier to control.

spin rate, great looking wedges that pro players use, multiple options for loft to allow for more full swing shots, should receive added distance
They love
his spin rate and think he has breakout potential.
Did we talk about
the spin rate?
The spin rate on these are pretty off the charts.
And the fact that Earth's
spin rate wasn't slowing down as quickly then as it is today hints that our planet had little or no ocean to slosh about and slow down our planet's spin rate for its first 500 million years, the findings suggest.
Before that time, the moon's
spin rate was higher, the researchers report today in Geophysical Research Letters.
Astronomers will first and foremost attempt to pin down the object's exact size (based on its brightness), as well as its shape and
spin rate (based on how its brightness fluctuates).
Also,
the spin rate of SN 2017egm's magnetar may be slower than usual.
Using light to affect
the spin rate is a clever approach, says organic chemist Harry Gibson of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg.
In doing so, ROMY will measure minuscule changes in Earth's
spin rate and spin axis.
By clocking when widely spaced dishes record a change in brightness, geodesists can calculate the planet's
spin rate and its axis.
In theory, ROMY could monitor Earth's
spin rate and axis constantly, updating measurements in real time, says Lucia Plank, a geodesist at the University of Tasmania in Hobart, Australia, who helps provide the VLBI service.
In which radio signals emitted by quasars billions of light - years a way serve as benchmarks fo r measuring the earth s wobble, tiny changes in
its spin rate and the imperceptible drift of its plates
EL61, as it is officially known, is a mass of ice and rock that flops through space with
a spin rate far faster than that of any known body its size, making complete rotations around its wide axis every four hours.
This would affect the «starquakes» that are thought to be important in some pulsars, producing sudden changes, known as glitches, in
their spin rate.
In the process, the astronomers also hope to determine Sagittarius A *'s
spin rate and true mass down to an accuracy of about 1 part in a million.
It is one of the most extreme of the systems for which the mass and
spin rate have ever been measured.
Scientists have used those observations to pin down the asteroid's orbit, as well as its size, shape,
spin rate and composition.
