The front wheels of a tractor are 0.5 m in diameter and the rear wheels are 2 m in diameter.
whats the distance travelled by the tractor when the front wheel has revolved 2100 times more than the rear wheels ?
(1)8.8 km
(2)2.2 km
(3)5.28 km
(4)4.4 km
KINDLY ,PLEASE dont give soln, i want to solve myself, i want to take the challenge ....if i cant solve it , i will post it again ....but for the time being i need hints .
what i dont understand is , whats the relationship between front wheel and rear wheel ? i think the tractor will move the same distance .......whether the front wheel is bigger or smaller than the rear wheel ...it does not matter .
BY the way , as per the question , it asks how much distance tractor will move given a front wheel and real wheel revolution difference .
can you give me some HINTS so that i can use that in my head and proceed to solve ?
thank you
