A bicycle with 26-inch diameter wheels is traveling at 20 mi/h. Find the angular speed of the wheels in rad/min.

______radians per minute

___revolutions per minuteω =  1320 rad/min, Revolution per minutes = 210.084

Diameter = 24 in

Radius r = 24/2 in = 12 in = 12 × 2.54 cm = 30.48‬ cm = 0.3048 m

Linear Speed v= 15 mi/hr = 15 * 1609.34 / 3600 m/s = 6.7056 m/s

Angular Speed ω = v / r = (6.7056 m/s) / (0.3048 m) = 21.999945

ω =  22 rad/s = 22× 60 rad/min = 1320 rad/min

∴ 1 revolution = 2π rad

⇒1 rad = 1 / 2π rev

so 1320 rad/min = 1320 / 2π  rev/min = 210.0845 rev/min

Revolution per minutes = 210.0845
