Answer:
7.8 Mph
Explanation:
Rate of cycling = 1.1 rev/s
Rear wheel diameter = 26 inches
Diameter of sprocket on pedal = 6 inches
Diameter of sprocket on rear wheel = 4 inches
Circumference of rear wheel = \pi d=26\piπd=26π
Speed would be
\begin{gathered}\text{Rate of cycling}\times \frac{\text{Diameter of sprocket on pedal}}{\text{Diameter of sprocket on rear wheel}}\times{\text{Circumference of rear wheel}}\\ =1.1\times \frac{6}{4}\times 26\pi\\ =134.77432\ inches/s\end{gathered}Rate of cycling×Diameter of sprocket on rear wheelDiameter of sprocket on pedal×Circumference of rear wheel=1.1×46×26π=134.77432 inches/s
Converting to mph
1\ inch/s=\frac{1}{63360}\times 3600\ mph1 inch/s=633601×3600 mph
134.77432\ inches/s=134.77432\times \frac{1}{63360}\times 3600\ mph=7.65763\ mph134.77432 inches/s=134.77432×633601×3600 mph=7.65763 mph
The Speed of the bicycle is 7.8 mph
