The tires on your bicycle have a radius of 13 inches. How many rotations does each tire make when you travel 1200 feet? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
In one rotation, the linear distance covered = 2 * pi * 13 = 26pi inches
Converting 1200 ft to inches = 1200 * 12 = 14400 in
So.....he number of rotations is :
14400 / [26 pi ] ≈ 176 rotations
You are a genius. Thank you
