A wheel has a radius of 42 cm. How many revolutions must it make to cover a distance of 132 meters? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A wheel has a radius of 42 cm. How many revolutions must it make to cover a distance of 132 meters?
A. 70 revolutions
B. 60 revolutions
C. 40 revolutions
D. 50 revolutions
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Circumference of the wheel = 2 * (22/7) * 42 = 264 cm = 2.64 meters. Total distance = 132 meters. Number of revolutions = 132 / 2.64 = 50 revolutions.

Question #1
A person row a boat 16 km upstream in 4 hours. If the speed of the current is 1 km/h, find the speed of the boat in still water.
A. 4 km/h
B. 6 km/h
C. 7 km/h
D. 5 km/h

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Upstream speed = 16 / 4 = 4 km/h. Upstream Speed = Speed in still water - Current speed => 4 = Speed in still water - 1 => Speed in still water = 5 km/h.

Question #2
A boat moves upstream at 8 km/h and downstream at 14 km/h. Find the speed of the river current.
A. 4.0 km/h
B. 3.5 km/h
C. 2.5 km/h
D. 3.0 km/h

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Speed of the river current = (Downstream speed - Upstream speed) / 2 = (14 - 8) / 2 = 6 / 2 = 3 km/h.

Question #3
A boat can row 10 km/h in still water. If the river velocity is 2 km/h, find the distance covered downstream by the boat in 30 minutes.
A. 8 km
B. 6 km
C. 7 km
D. 5 km

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Downstream speed = 10 + 2 = 12 km/h. Time = 30 minutes = 0.5 hour. Distance covered = Speed * Time = 12 * 0.5 = 6 km.
