      The spokes in a bicycle wheel primarily increase

      its:
      A Pressure Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Amplitude Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Acceleration Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Moment of inertia Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The spokes in a bicycle wheel increase its moment of inertia. A higher moment of inertia results in smoother bicycle motion. The moment of inertia quantifies a body's rotational inertiaโ€”the resistance it exhibits to changes in rotational speed when torque is applied. This property may be measured around internal or external axes, which may be fixed or movable.
