Best Answer

That depends on the relative sizes of the gear shafts used to transmit power from the motor to the wheel. For instance, if they were the same size, and no gears in between, then the wheel would rotate 400 times a minute (RPM), which is 6.66 times a second. But usually gears transmit power in such a way that the wheel rotates slower than the motor (less RPM) but with more power.

How many revolutions per hour does the minute hand move on big ben clock?

The minute hand of any analog clock moves 1 revolution per hour. (60 minutes to an hour) The second hand makes 60 revolutions an hour. (Each tick represents one second, one revolution per minute, equals 60 revolutions an hour.)

Low range power is the power your motor makes in the low range of rpms( revolutions per minute).


A wheel on a vehicle has a diameter of 36 inches If the vehicle is moving at a speed of 50 mph how many full revolutions will the wheel make in one minute?

1760 yards = 1 mile. 60 minutes = 1 hour. 36 inches = 1 yard. 50*1760 divided by 60 = 1466 yards 2 feet in one minute Circumference of wheel = pi*36 = 113.0973355 inches 113.0973355/36 = 3.141592654 yards 1466.666666/3.14192654 = 466.8048878 revolutions in one minute So the wheel makes 466 full revolutions in one minute.


What is the meaning of drill speed?

Drill speeds are almost always measured in revolutions per minute, RPM or revolutions per second, RPS. This term means that the drill makes a complete revolution that many times in the specified time period. 7200 RPM means that it will revolve 7200 times in a minute, or 120 times in a second. Some materials require specific drill speeds in order not to damage them. The limits are usually on the maximum speed.


The short hand and long hand clock are 4cmand6cm long respectively find the distance traveled by their tips in two days?

Every day, the hour hand makes 2 complete revolutions and the minute hand makes 24 revolutions (one per hour). So we have 4 complete revolutions on the hour hand and 48 on the minute hand. First, let us find out the distance per revolution these make. If you noticed on a clock, these would be considered radii, the minute hand makes: C = 2πr ==> C = 2π(4) ==> C = 8π ==> C ≈ 25.133 cm/revolution and the hour hand makes: C = 2πr ==> C = 2π(6) ==> C = 12π ==> C ≈ 37.699 cm/revolution So the sums are: 48(8π cm) + 4(12π cm) = 384π cm + 48π cm = 432π cm ≈ 1,357.168 cm Therefore, the sum of the distances traveled is about 1,357 cm.
