First of all, if viewed live (not on tv or in a movie), they do not appear to be going backward. A tv (or movie) is taken by a series of pictures (called frames) and the speed of these pictures varies by the camera being used. If you could vary the speed of the frames forward or back you could change the direction the wheel appears to be turning.
Therefore it is and illusion and mostly appears on tv related scenes and is a function of the camera shutter speed and tv scanning speed if they were exactly the same the wheel could even appear to not turn. Slight differences in the sycronization of these two (mechanicanical) gives a slow turnappearance to a wheel that is turning fast.
That is my statement and I'm sticking to it.
"Spokes" are the things that branch out from the centre of wheels to the outside edge of the wheel, to stabilise them. So wagon spokes are the things that branch out of wagon wheel centres (usually wooden, in this case). Bicycle wheels also have spokes.

A wheel with 12 spaces will have 12 spokes.
There would be 20 spokes with 20 spaces. Picture each space as if it was a flag and each spoke as a flagpole.
18. Picture it this way. If a wagon wheel had 2 spaces, it is easy to see that it would have two spokes, say, top and bottom. Adding another spoke would block off another space. From this idea, you can see that the number of spaces must equal the number of spokes.
yes
It is called the Wagon Wheel effect and is an optical illusion. Read the link I posted.
People going west used the covered wagon.
Probably 1996 thru 1999 if it is going wagon to wagon.
"Going on the wagon" means to stop drinking alcoholic beverages.
The movie was called Lunch wagon
On the wagon means you are giving up alcohol. You are not going to drink anything alcoholic. If you fall off the wagon, you've slipped up and had a drink.
