Question

the radius of the tires on a particular vehicle 0.62m if the tires are rotating 5 times per second, what is the velocity of the vehicle?

Answer 1

Circumference of the tire = (2 pi) x (radius)

                                     =  (2 pi) x (0.62 meter)

                                     =    3.9 meters

If the tire never slips or skids, then the speed of the vehicle is

             speed  =  (distance)  /  (time to cover the distance)

                       =  (5 x 3.9 meters)  /  1 second

                       =     19.48 meters/second   .

                    (about 43.6 miles per hour)  .

We can't say anything about the vehicle's velocity, because we have
no information about the direction in which it's heading.
