What is the distance traveled with 240 revolutions and a diameter of 70cm?
Distance travelled = 240*circumference 240*pi*70 = 52778.75658 or about 52779 cm
What is the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled without identifying the direction traveled?
Speed describes the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled, if the direction is not specified.
What is the formula for distance traveled?
distance traveled = speed multiplied by time taken.
A garden roller has a diameter of 56cm and 70cm wide it is pushed that it revolves 20 times what distance has it traveled?
The width is not needed as the distance travelled is 20 times its circumference (= {pi} x diameter): distance = 20 x {pi} x 56cm ~= 3519cm = 35.19m
Which of the following do you calculate when you divide the total distance traveled by the total traveled time?
Speed = Distance/Time
What is the distance traveled with 240 revolutions and a diameter of 70cm?
Distance travelled = 240*circumference 240*pi*70 = 52778.75658 or about 52779 cm
How can displacement be less than the distance traveled?
Of course. If you run around a circular track one time and stop when you reach thestarting line, then the distance traveled is the circumference of the track, but thedisplacement is zero.Displacement can be anything between zero and the distance, but it can never bemore than the distance.
How does the size of the car's wheels affect the distance it will travel?
Circumference of a circle: 2*pi*radius or pi*diameter (pi=3.14159...) Traveled distance = number of revolutions * circumference of tire To increase the distance you can either increase the number of revolutions or the circumference of the tire. Ex: Tire diameter = 1 meter => circumference = 3.14159 * 1 = 3.14159 meters So if you drive from home to Wendy's and the wheel spins 1000 times totally it means that you've traveled a distance of: 3.14159 * 1000 = 3141.59 meters
The diameter of a wheel is 6cm how many complete revolutions will the wheel make if it rolls a distance of 108pi cm?
Since it'll be rolling around the outside of the circle, the distance traveled will be in some multiple of the circumference. So, dividing the distance by the circumference will give the answer. C = πD = 6π revolutions = distance / circumference = 108π / 6π = 18 revolutions
Does displacement always equal distance traveled?
No. Displacement is how far an object is from its original position. This means that if an object traveled in a circle and returned to its original point, it will have a displacement of 0 while the distance will be whatever the circumference of the circle was. Hope that helps.
What animal traveled on Salyut 6 spacecraft?
dog
What is the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled without identifying the direction traveled?
Speed describes the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled, if the direction is not specified.
Why do you multiply 2 by the radius of the moon and pi to get the distance the moon travels in one revolution of the earth?
From geometry it is known that the circumference of a circle is 2*pi*r - where r is the radius. Assuming the orbit of the moon is a circle, then the distance traveled in one orbit is the circumference of the circle.
What is the first Russian spacecraft traveled to space?
sputnik 1
What are distance traveled and time traveled and rate of travel related?
Rate of travel = (distance traveled) divided by (time traveled)
What was the name of spacecraft that the neil Armstrong traveled in when he walk on the moon?
The name of the spacecraft that took Neil Armstrong. to the moon was Apollo 11
How can displacement be less than distance travel?
Of course. If you run around a circular track one time and stop when you reach thestarting line, then the distance traveled is the circumference of the track, but thedisplacement is zero.Displacement can be anything between zero and the distance, but it can never bemore than the distance.
