A car is moving with the speed of 47.52km/hr and the radius of the wheel of car is 21 cm. Calculate the approximate number of revolutions made by the wheel in one minute.

Correct Answer: 600 rpm

Explanation:

Speed in cm/minute = (Speed in km/hr x 1000 x100 )/60
= 47.52x(50/3)
=79200 cm/min
And Circumference of circle = 2πr
=2 x ( 22 / 7 ) x 21
=132
No. of revolutions = ( Speed in cm/minute ) / circumference of circle in cm
=79200 / 132
=600 rpm
