The diameter of a bicycle wheel is 42cm. If the wheel makes 16 complete revolution, what will be the total distance covered by the wheel? [Take \(\pi \frac{22}{7}\)
Answer Details
The distance covered by the wheel is equal to the circumference of the wheel multiplied by the number of revolutions made.
The circumference of the wheel can be calculated using the formula:
circumference = diameter x pi
circumference = 42cm x 22/7
circumference = 132cm
Therefore, the distance covered by the wheel in 16 complete revolutions is:
distance = circumference x number of revolutions
distance = 132cm x 16
distance = 2112cm
So, the answer is (c) 2112cm.
