The radius of a circular wheel of a toy car is 56 mm. In how many revolutions can it cover a distance of 176 cm? [Use $$\pi = \frac{22}{7}$$]
The radius of a circular wheel of a toy car is 56 mm.
radius of a circular wheel of a toy car = 56 mm
= $$\frac{56}{10}$$ cm [We know that 1 cm = 10 mm]
= 5.6 cm
Circumference of a circular wheel of a toy car = $$2\times\ \pi\ \times\ radius$$
= $$2\times\ \frac{22}{7}\times5.6$$
= $$44\times0.8$$
= 35.2 cm
Number of revolutions when a distance of 176 cm is covered = $$\frac{total\ distance\ covered}{circumference}$$
= $$\frac{176}{35.2}$$
= $$\frac{1760}{352}$$
= 5
