Answer:
w =3416 rad/min
Explanation:
The angular speed of the wheels in radians can be defined as follows:
where
w = angular speed
r = radius of the wheel
s =distance traveled per minute
in this case we have
r = 34/2 inches = 17 inches
s = (55 mi/hr) (5280 ft/mi) (12 in/ft) (1hr/60min) = 58,080 inches/min
Therefore, w = 58,080/ 17 = 3416 rad/min
