Answer: 11 feet


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The diameter of the Ferris wheel= 140 ft.

We know that the circumference of the circle is given by :-

\text{Circumference}=\pi d, where d is the diameter.

Therefore, the circumference of the Ferris wheel=\pi(140)=3.14\times140=439.6\ feet

If there are 40 cars for riders, and they are placed at even intervals around the Ferris wheel.

Then, the distance between the cars=439.6\div 40=10.99\approx11\ feet
