Answer:
the golf ball travels 4,295.52 inches in 20 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
the ball spins around 340 revolutions per minute
340 revolutions per 60 seconds
60 seconds = 340 revolutions
1 seconds = [tex]\frac{340}{60} = 5.667[/tex]
so its around 5.7 revolutions in 1 second
1 second = 5.7 revolutions
20 seconds = 5.7 * 20 = 114 revolutions
In 20 second ball spins 114 revolutions
To find distance traveled in 1 revolution we find the circumference of circle
circumference of circle = 2* 3.14 * r
r is the radius = 6 in
circumference of circle = 2* 3.14 * 6= 37.68 inches
In 1 revolution ball travels 37.68 inches
In 114 revolution ball travels 37.68 * 114 = 4295.52 inches
the golf ball travels 4,295.52 inches in 20 seconds
