You are walking at 4.40 km per hour across a frozen lake in the snow. You do not realize that with each step you turn 0.40 degrees to your right. If your step length is 58.0 cm what is the diameter, in meters, of the circle that you are inadvertently tracing out?

After 360/0.40 = 900 steps, you will have completed a circle by varying your direction by 360 degrees.

The circumference that you will have walked will be 900*0.58 m = 522 meters

Divide by pi for the diameter.

The speed does not affect the answer.
