The car moved 175.84 cm in one revolution
The car has moved 17584 cm in 100 revolutions
Solution:
Given that car wheel is 56 cm in diameter
diameter = 56 cm
To find: distance traveled in one revolution of wheel
Usually wheel is of circular shape
one revolution of wheel = circumference of circle
The circumference of circle is given as:
[tex]c = 2 \pi r[/tex]
We know that,
diameter = 2(radius)
[tex]d = 2r[/tex]
So the circumference becomes:
[tex]c = \pi d[/tex]
substitute [tex]\pi[/tex] = 3.14 and d = 56 cm
[tex]c = 3.14 \times 56 = 175.84[/tex]
Thus the car moved 175.84 cm in one revolution
B. How far does it go in 100 revolutions
Distance covered in 100 revolutions = 100 x Distance covered in 1 revolution
[tex]\rightarrow 100 \times 175.84 = 17584[/tex]
Thus the car has moved 17584 cm in 100 revolutions
