the wheel of the car has an outer radius of 25 cm Calculate: How far the wheel traveled after one complete turn of wheel How many times the wheel turns for a journey of 1 km
Distance in one turn of the wheel = circumference = pi*50 cm
Number of turns in 1km = 100000/(50pi). Because there are 100000 cm in 1km
the wheel of the car has an outer radius of 25 cm Calculate: How far the wheel traveled after one complete turn of wheel How many times the wheel turns for a journey of 1 km.
Cirumference=Diameter x Pi
25 x 2 = 50 cm-diameter of the wheel.
50 x 3.141592 =157.0796 cm-circumference of the wheel.
1 km x 1000 m x 100 cm =100,000 cm
100,000 / 157.0796 =636.620 Turns in 1 km journey.
