Question 258995: a truck is moving at a rate of 90 kilometers per hour, and the diameter of its wheels is 1 meter. find the angular speed of the wheels in radians per minute.
I'm confused on how to get the answer. does this question involve the conversion of degrees and radians? please help me solve it.

a truck is moving at a rate of 90 kilometers per hour, and the diameter of its wheels is 1 meter. find the angular speed of the wheels in radians per minute.
:
Circumference of the wheel
C = pi%2A1
:
%2890%2A1000%29%2F60 = 1500 meters/minute
:
Find rpm
%281500%2Fpi%29%2A%282pi%29 = 3000 radians/minute
