Explanation:
We'll call the radius r and the diameter d:
We also assume that the riders are at a distance r = d/2 = 7m from the center of the wheel.
The period of the wheel is 24s. The tangent velocity of the wheel (and the riders) will be: (2pi/T)*r = 0.8 m/s (circa).
It means that in 3 minutes (180 seconds) they'll run 0.8 m/s * 180s = 144m.
Hopefully I understood the question. If yes, that's the answer.
If the object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed, then that's
the definition of zero acceleration. It can only happen when the sum of
all forces (the 'net' force) on the object is zero.
And it doesn't matter what the object's mass is. That argument is true
for specks of dust, battleships, rocks, stars, rock-stars, planets, and
everything in between.
