A big wheel at a theme park has a diameter of 14m and people on the ride complete one revolution in 24s. calculate the distance
just olya [345]

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.
