A bicycle is rolling down a circular portion of a path; this portion of the path has a radius of 9.30 m. As the drawing illustrates, the angular displacement of the bicycle is 1.130 rad. What is the angle (in radians) through which each bicycle wheel (radius = 0.300 m) rotates?

The angle through which each bicycle wheel rotates is 35.03 rad.

Explanation:

Given;

the radius of the circular path, R = 9.30 m

the angular displacement of the bicycle, θ = 1.130 rad

the radius of the bicycle wheel, r = 0.3

S = θR

where;

s is the distance of the circular path

S = 1.13 x 9.3 = 10.509 m

The angle (in radians) through which each bicycle wheel of radius 0.300 m rotates is given as;

θr = 10.509 m

θ = 10.509 / 0.3

θ = 35.03 rad.

Therefore, the angle through which each bicycle wheel of radius 0.300 m rotates is 35.03 rad.
