The diameter of each wheel of a bicycle is 28 inches. if you are traveling at a speed of 15 miles per hour on this? bicycle, through how many revolutions per minute are the wheels? turning?

180.07 rev / min

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter (D) of each wheel =28 inches

Circumference (C) =  π x 28 = 28π inches

Conversions:

1 mile = 63,360 inches

1 hour = 60 min

Hence 15 miles / hour

= (15)(63,360) inches / hour

= (15)(63,360) / 60  inches / min

= 15,840 inches per min

Number of revolutions per min = Number of inches per min ÷ circumference in inches

=15,840 inches/min ÷ 28π inches

= 180.07 revolutions per min

since the airplane is moving with constant speed then the distance travelled can be calculated by x=u*t

in km/h would be:

x=640*3.5=2.240 km

in m/s would be:

u=640 km/h= 640.000 m/h =640.000/ 3600 m/s =177.8 m/s

t= 3.5 h= 3.5 * 3600 s=12.600 s

then x=u*t= 177.8*12.600= 2.240.280 m
