Answer:
477.47 revolutions
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given:
The formula for calculating the circumference = 2π r
Given that the radius of each wheel = 25 centimeter
Then, the circumference = 2 π (25)
= 50π cm
The distance traveled in 5 minutes is as follows:
Given that:
The speed = 45 km/ hour
i.e.
1 hour = 45 km
In an hour, we have 60 minutes
So, 60 minutes = 45 km
1 minute = 45/60 = 0.75 km
To cm;
0.75 km = (0.75 × 1000) m = 750 m
750 m = 750 × 100 = 75,000 cm
∴
The number of revolution in 5 minutes sInce 1 revolution = 50π cm is:
= 75,000 cm/ 50π cm
= 477.47 revolutions in 5 minutes
