A truck with 44-inch diameter wheels is traveling at 50 mph. Find the angular speed of the wheels in rad/min. (Hint: Convert miles to inches & hours to minutes: rad/min) How many revolutions per minute do the wheels make? (rpm)
Added by Nathan C.
Step 1
Given: - Speed of the truck = 50 mph - 1 mile = 63360 inches - 1 hour = 60 minutes Speed in inches per minute = 50 mph * 63360 inches/mile / 60 minutes/hour Speed in inches per minute = 52800 inches/minute Show more…
