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.

Let the angles of the quadrilateral be \[\left( a - 3d \right)^\circ, \left( a - d \right)^\circ, \left( a + d \right)^\circ \text{ and }\left( a + 3d \right)^\circ\]
We know: \[a - 3d + a - d + a + d + a - 2d = 360\]
\[ \Rightarrow 4a = 360\]
\[ \Rightarrow a = 90\]
We have:
Greatest angle = 120°
Now,
\[a + 3d = 120\]
\[ \Rightarrow 90 + 3d = 120\]
\[ \Rightarrow 3d = 30\]
\[ \Rightarrow d = 10\]
Hence,
\[\left( a - 3d \right)^\circ, \left( a - d \right)^\circ, \left( a + d \right)^\circ\text{ and }\left( a + 3d \right)^\circ\] are

\[60^\circ, 80^\circ, 100^\circ\text{ and }120^\circ\], respectively.
Angles of the quadrilateral in radians =
\[\left( 60 \times \frac{\pi}{180} \right), \left( 80 \times \frac{\pi}{180} \right) , \left( 100 \times \frac{\pi}{180} \right) \text{ and }\left( 120 \times \frac{\pi}{180} \right)\]
