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.

A ball of mass 8 kg falls from rest from a height of 100 m. Neglecting air resistance,calculate its kinetic energy after falling
astra-53 [7]
As an object falls from rest, its gravitational energy is converted to kinetic energy

G.P.E = K.E = mgh

K.E = (80 Kg)(9.8 m/s²)(30 m)

K.E. = 23,520 J
