The wheel of a tractor has a diameter 1.4m. What distance does it cover in 100 complete revolutions? [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]
Answer Details
The circumference of the wheel is the distance it covers in one revolution.
Circumference of the wheel = π × diameter
Substituting the given values,
Circumference of the wheel = π × 1.4m = 4.4m (rounded to one decimal place)
Therefore, the distance covered in 100 revolutions is:
Distance covered = Circumference of the wheel × Number of revolutions
Substituting the given values,
Distance covered = 4.4m × 100 = 440m
Therefore, the wheel covers a distance of 440m in 100 complete revolutions.
Hence, the correct option is (D) 440m.
