A wheel with a 13-inch diameter is turning at the rate of 57 revolutions per minute.
To the nearest inch per minute, what is the linear velocity of a point on the rim?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The linear velocity of a point on the rim in inches per minute is
the circumference of the wheel times the number of revolutions per minute
linear velocity = = = 2327 inches per minute (rounded). ANSWER
