Question

A wheel with a radius of 19 meters is moving forward at 164.95 meters per second. How fast is the wheel rotating in radians per second?

Answer 1

Answer:

8.68 radians per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of the wheel is 2 π r

= 38π meters.

So that is 164.95 / 38π of full turns of the wheel.

1 turn of the wheel = 2π radians , so the answer is

(164.95 / 38π)  * 2π  

= 164.95 / 19

= 8.68 radians per second.
