Re: How many inches does my wheel go in one rotation?
Well it's quite simple actually.
So we have the well known mathematical fact that the number of inches that a wheel turns is proportional to the square of it's radius (denoted r). This factor is \pi. If you have a wheel of diameter 2n, r = n. We thus have: turning distance = \pi * r^2. It's quite simple really. I think this is covered in the first few weeks of AP CALCULUS BC. |
