The diameter of the driving wheel of a bus is 140 cm. How many revolution, per minute must the wheel make in order to keep a speed of 66 kmph ?

150
250
350
550

Correct Answer: 250

Explanation:

Circumference = No.of revolutions * Distance covered

Distance to be covered in 1 min. = (66 X1000)/60 m = 1100 m.
Circumference of the wheel = 2 x (22/7) x 0.70 m = 4.4 m.
Number of revolutions per min. =(1100/4.4) = 250.
