I have a question.
\n" ); document.write( "If a ferris wheel is 18.0 inches in diameter and makes 1 revolution in 3.00 min what is the speed of a seat on the rim?
\n" ); document.write( "Thats one of the problems and I used the formula V=w (omega)r. Is that the correct formula
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "1 rev = (pi)d = 18(pi)in.
\n" ); document.write( "time = 3 min/rev
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "velocity = distance/time = [18(pi)in]/[3 min/rev] = 6(pi)in / min
\n" ); document.write( "============
