Best answer

Diameter of the wheel of the car = 80 cm

Radius (r) of the wheel of the car = 40 cm

 Circumference of wheel 

= 2πr = 2π (40) = 80π cm 

Speed of car = 66 km/hour

Distance travelled by the car in 10 minutes

= 110000 × 10 = 1100000 cm

Let the number of revolutions of the wheel of the car be n. n × Distance travelled in 1 revolution (i.e., circumference) = Distance travelled in 10 minutes

Therefore, each wheel of the car will make 4375 revolutions.
