The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these instructions: ### Step 1: Convert kilometers to meters The first step is to convert the distance traveled from kilometers to meters. Given: - Distance = 11 km We know that: 1 km = 1000 meters So, \[ \text{Distance in meters} = 11 \times 1000 = 11000 \text{ meters} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the distance covered in one revolution Next, we need to find out how far the bicycle travels in one revolution of the wheel. Given: - Total revolutions = 5000 Using the formula: \[ \text{Distance per revolution} = \frac{\text{Total distance}}{\text{Total revolutions}} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Distance per revolution} = \frac{11000 \text{ meters}}{5000} = 2.2 \text{ meters} \] ### Step 3: Relate distance per revolution to circumference The distance covered in one revolution of the wheel is equal to the circumference of the wheel. So, we have: \[ \text{Circumference} = 2.2 \text{ meters} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the diameter of the wheel The circumference (C) of a circle is related to its diameter (D) by the formula: \[ C = \pi D \] We can rearrange this to find the diameter: \[ D = \frac{C}{\pi} \] Using \( \pi \approx \frac{22}{7} \): \[ D = \frac{2.2}{\frac{22}{7}} \] To simplify: \[ D = 2.2 \times \frac{7}{22} \] \[ D = \frac{2.2 \times 7}{22} \] \[ D = \frac{15.4}{22} \] \[ D = 0.7 \text{ meters} \] ### Final Answers - Circumference of the wheel = 2.2 meters - Diameter of the wheel = 0.7 meters ---
