A) 13.68kmph B) 31.68kmph
C) 41.68kmph D) 45.68kmph

Distance covered will be : Number of revolutions x Circumference 

 

So we will be having distance and time, from which we can calculate the speed. 

 

Radius of wheel = 70 / 2 = 35 cm

 

Distance covered in 40 revolutions will be 40*circumferene=40*2πr=40*2*227*35=8800cm = 88 m

 

Distance covered in 1 sec  = 8810=8.8m/s=8.8*185km/hr=31.68km/hr
