The radius of the wheel is 0.102 m.

What is radius of a circle?

The radius of a circle is a straight line that comes from the center of a circle to any point of the circumference of the circle.

To calculate the radius of 5 revolutions of the wheel, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • d = 10πr.............. Equation 1

Where:

  • d = Total distance moved by the wheel
  • r = radius of the wheel.
  • π = pie

Make r the subject of the equation

  • r = d/(10π)........... Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • d = 3.2 m
  • π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • r = 3.2/(10×3.14)
  • r = 3.2/31.4
  • r = 0.102 m.

Hence, the radius of the wheel is 0.102 m.
