In how many revolution can a bicycle wheel of diameter 4.9meters cover a distance of 46.2kilometer?

1 answer

To find out how many revolutions the bicycle wheel will make to cover a distance of 46.2 kilometers, we need to calculate the circumference of the wheel.

The circumference of a circle is given by:
C = πd

Where:
C = Circumference
d = Diameter

Given:
d = 4.9 meters

C = π(4.9)
C ≈ 15.407 meters

Now, we can calculate the number of revolutions the wheel will make to cover a distance of 46.2 kilometers:
Number of revolutions = Distance ÷ Circumference

Number of revolutions = 46.2 km ÷ 0.015407 km
Number of revolutions ≈ 2994.41

Therefore, the bicycle wheel of diameter 4.9 meters would make approximately 2994 revolutions to cover a distance of 46.2 kilometers.
