Calculate the peripheral speed of the number on the Wheel of Fortune if the wheel rotates within a period of 0.25 seconds and the number is written 1.5 m from the center of the wheel.

Final Answer:

v =  37.7 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

T=0.25 s r=1.5 m  o=2π r=2 3.1416 1.59.4248 m  v=o/T=9.4248/0.25=37.7 m/s
