The diameter of the driving wheel of a bus is 140 cm. How many revolutions per minute must the wheel make in order to keep a speed of 66 km per hour? Correct Answer 250
peed of the bus = 66 km/hrDistance covered by the wheel in one minute = 6066 × 1000 × 100 = 110000 cmCircumference of the wheel = 2 × 22/7 × 70 = 440 cmTherefore, distance covered by the wheel in one revolution = 440 cmHence, number of revolutions in one minute = 110000/440 = 250 times
