Question

A wheel makes 360 revolutions in one minute. Through how many radians does it turn in one second?

Sum

Solution

Number of revolutions made by the wheel in 1 minute = 360

∴ Number of revolutions made by the wheel in 1 second =`360/60 = 6`

In one complete revolution, the wheel turns an angle of 2π radian.

∵ An angle of 360 × 2π radians is formed in 1 minute, i.e. 60 seconds.

∴ Angle made by the wheel in 1 second = `(360×2pi)/60`

= 12π radians.
