All you do is measure it with a ruler and for every 1 cm you get multiply it by 8.5ft.
so for example if you got 6cm then you would multiply it by 8.5ft and your answer would be 51ft.
The linear speed of one of the cars is 7.75 feet per second
The cars (seats) of a Ferris wheel are positioned 74 feet from its center.
The radius, r = 74 feet
The Ferris wheel makes 4 revolutions every 4 minutes
Number of revolutions per minute = 1
Angular speed, w = 1 rev/min
Angular speed, w = 0.10472 rad/sec
The relationship between the linear speed (v), and the angular speed (w) is:
v = wr
Substitute w = 0.10472 and r = 74 feet into the formula:
v = 0.10472 x 74
v = 7.75 feet per second
The linear speed of one of the cars is 7.75 feet per second

You would do 20-6 which = 14. + 1 =15. times 8= 120 then divide that by 1/2 = 240 if you do 120 divided by .5 in a calculator thats what you get. i hope that helps you
