  1. Diameter of wheel = 80 cm
    Radius of wheel (r) = 40 cm
    Circumference of wheel = 2πr = 2π (40) = 80m cm
    Speed of car = 66 km/hour = (66 × 10000)/60 cm/min = 110000 cm/min
    Distance travelled in 10 minutes = 110000 x 10 1100000 cm
    Let the wheel makes n revolutions in 10 minutes. Therefore,
    n × Distance travelled in one revolution (circumference) = Distance travelled in 10 minutes
    ⇒ n × 80π = 1100000
    ⇒ n = (1100000)/80π = (1100000 x 7)/(80 x 22) = (35000)/8 = 4375
    Hence, the wheel takes 4375 revolutions in 10 minutes.
