Question 6
The diameter of the driving wheel of a cart is 154 cm. Calculate the revolution per minute [RPM] of the wheel in order to keep a speed of 33 Kilo meter per hour.
Solution
Diameter of driving wheel = 154 cm
=> Circumference (1 revolution) of wheel = $$2\pi r$$
= $$2\times\frac{22}{7}\times77=484$$ cm
=> In 1 minute, the wheel covers = 4.84 m
Thus, in 1 hour, distance covered = $$4.84\times60=290.4$$ m
$$\therefore$$ In order to keep a speed of 33 km/hr, rpm = $$\frac{33}{0.2904}=113.63\approx114$$
=> Ans - (A)
