$=\frac{22}{7} \times 42 $
$=132 cm =1.32 m $
$\text { Circumference }=1.32 m$
No. of revolutions $=9$ per second
No. of revolutions per hour $=9 \times 60 \times 60=32400$
Distance covered in one hour $=32400 \times 1.32=42768\ m / hour$
Speed of the wheel in km/hour $=\frac{42768}{1000}=42.768\ km / hour =43\ km / hr$
Speed $=43\ km / hr$
$=\frac{22}{7} \times 42 $
$=132 cm =1.32 m $
$\text { Circumference }=1.32 m$
No. of revolutions $=9$ per second
No. of revolutions per hour $=9 \times 60 \times 60=32400$
Distance covered in one hour $=32400 \times 1.32=42768\ m / hour$
Speed of the wheel in km/hour $=\frac{42768}{1000}=42.768\ km / hour =43\ km / hr$
Speed $=43\ km / hr$
