**
900rev/min*360�/rev*min/60 sec=900*360�/60 sec=5400�/sec
Degrees a point on the edge of the tire move in 1/3 seconds=1/3*5400�/sec=1800�

A tire is rotating 900times per min. Through how many degrees does a point on the edge of a tire move in 1/3 seconds?
-----------------
900 rev/min = 15 rev/sec
--> 5 rev in 1/3 second
= 1800 degrees
=================
For all points on the tire (except the center), not just a point on the edge.
