CIRCULAR MOTION!
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
A wheel 1 meter in diameter is rotating at 100 revolutions per minute along a level stretch. How far down the road does the wheel travel in hour?
2. Relevant equations
i think...

3. The attempt at a solution
100 revs=200(pi) radians/60sec * 3600sec=
=10.47 * 3600sec
=3.769*10^4 rads/hr
S=(theta)(r)
S=(theta)(.5 meters)
S=(3.769*10^4 rads/hr)(0.5m)
S=1.88*10^4 m
Please corroborate such undertakings!!!
