A bicycle tire with a 16-inch radius has an angular speed of 328(pi) radians per minute. Find the linear speed of the tire in feet per second. Round to the nearest tenth.

SOLUTION

The relationship between linear and angular speed is given as

[tex]\begin{gathered} v=rw \\ \text{Where } \\ v=l\text{inear sp}eed=? \\ r=\text{ radius = 16-inch} \\ w=\text{ angular sp}eed\text{ = 328}\pi\text{ radians } \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting the values into the equation we have

[tex]\begin{gathered} v=rw \\ v=16\times\text{328}\pi \\ v=16487.07825 \end{gathered}[/tex]
