Answer: B) The linear speed is 4750 inches per second, so this car would qualify.
Step-by-step explanation: To determine linear speed using revolutions per second, i.e., angular speed (ω):
v = ω.r
where r is radius.
As ω is in revolutions per second, transform into rad/s:
ω = 36 revolutions/s
1 revolution = 2π rad
ω = 36.2π rad/s
ω = 72π rad/s
Radius is 21 inches, which can be written as
r = 21 inches/rad
Linear speed is
v = [tex]\frac{72.\pi rad}{s} .\frac{21 in}{rad}[/tex]
v ≈ 4750 inches per seconds
Converting to miles per hour:
v = [tex]4750.\frac{5}{88}[/tex]
v = 270mph
At linear speed of 4750 inches per second, a car with wheel of radius 21-inch can qualify.
