The outer circle of a track is longer this is why the starting line is often set at an angle to the outside of the track.

Perimeter of the sector?

A track 7m wide consists of two concentric circles. The circumference of the inner circle is 440m. Find, 1) the radius of the outer circle 2) the circumference of the outer circle.


It takes ten identical pieces to form a circular track for a pair of toy racing cars If the inside of each piece is 3.4 inches shorter than the outside arc what is the width of the track?

Length of outer track = sum of length of 10 pieces = circumference of the outer circleif R is the Radius of outer circle then...Circumference of the outer track = 2pi*RSimilarly the circumference of the inner track (with radius r) = 2pi*rlength of each outer piece is 3.4 inch more than length of inner pieceSo total outer length is 10*3.4 =34 inches more than the inner length.=> Outer Circumference - Inner Circumference = 34 inches=> 2pi*R - 2pi*r = 34=> 2pi(R -r) = 34=> R-r = 34/2pi = 5.41 inches=> R-r = Width of the track = 5.41 inches1 year ago


A circular race track is 3m in width a jogger runs around the inner circle of the track then at the same speed around the outer circle takin 12sec more to do so how fast does the jogger run?

The inner circle of the track with radius r meters and circumference 2πr is jogged in a time of Tseconds.The outer circle of the track has radius r + 3 and circumference 2π(r + 3) and is jogged in a time of T + 12.Speed = Distance ÷ Time.2πr/T = 2π(r + 3)/(T + 12) : r(T + 12) = T(r + 3) : 12r = 3T : 4r = TSubstituting for T in Speed = 2πr/T gives : Speed = 2πr/4r = π/2 meters per second.π/2 mps = π x 60 x 60/(2 x 1000) = 5.655 kph (3dp)The jogger runs at 5.655 kph


What difference might a different inner radius have on a track layout?

a shorter radius would mean a shorter track distance. The smaller the radius - the smaller the circumference.


How do you solve the curcuit board in Artemis Fowls inner circle?

you need to turn the circuit so that they form a steady track and all of the pieces connect


Are inner planets large or small?

The inner, or Terrestrial planets are very small in comparison to the outer, or Jovian planets. The smallest Jovian planet, Uranus, is 14.5 times larger than the largest Terrestrial planet, Earth.


What is the purpose of ZBR?

Zone Bit Recording (ZBR) is used by disk drives to store more sectors per track on outer tracks than on inner tracks.


How do you know when your wheel bearings have gone?

When ball bearings are shot you should be able to grab the outer race or track or anything attacked to it and you will be able to twist it in relation to the inner race or track. If the bearing is perfect there will be no gimbal movement to it and it will only rotate.


Where is the track control arm located?

A transverse lower suspension arm attached to the chassis at the inner end and to a McPherson strut at the outer end, it keeps the road wheel in the correct place.

What is the phenomenon of raising the outer rail of the track above the inner rail?

They bank the rails to somewhat alleviate the centripetal force generated as the train negotiates the curve. Same thing as banking on a road.


What is the distance traveled by a boy who walks on a circular track and reaches back to the starting point often completing one round?

That depends on the size of the track. Remember that the circumference of a circle is equal to the diameter, multiplied by pi (which is about 3.1416).
