    Question

    A wheel travels 5.28 km in 60 complete revolutions.

    Calculate the diameter of the wheel. (Use π = 22/7)
    A 30 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 28 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 17 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 36 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    5.28 km = 5.28 × 1000 = 5280 metres

    Circumference of the wheel = 5280 ÷ 60 = 88 metres

    Let the radius of the wheel be 'x' metres

    Circumference = 2πr

    ATQ:

    88 = 2 × (22/7) × x

    x = 14

    Diameter = 14 × 2 = 28 metres
