The wheel attached to a bicycle has a diameter of .59 m. If the wheel makes 7 rotations in a second, how fast is the cyclist traveling

Respuesta :

Answer: the cyclist traveling at 12.96 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

diameter = 0.59 m

radius = 0.295 m

the wheel makes 7 rotations in a second,

in every rotation, it travels a distance of 2πr

so

total distance

= 7 × 2πr

= 7 × 2 × 3.14 × 0.295

= 12.96 m

Therefore velocity = 12.96 m/s

so the cyclist traveling at 12.96 m/s
