@ParthKohli please help

anonymous · Answer

@lgbasallote please help

anonymous · Answer

will it depend on the radius of the well?

lgbasallote · Answer

sounds like circular motion....

parthkohli · Answer

54 kph = 54000meters per hour

54000/5 = 10,800 meters.

parthkohli · Answer

10.8 kilometers.

lgbasallote · Answer

lol that's a big well :p

anonymous · Answer

4.5 km

anonymous · Answer

no wrong ans. is 4.5 kms.

parthkohli · Answer

Oh lol

lgbasallote · Answer

get the circumference first 54 x 1/12 hours = 4.5

anonymous · Answer

just find out the distance covered in 5 minutes.
54 km in 60 minutes
so, in 1 minute, 54/60 km
in 5 minutes, 54/60 * 5 km=4.5 km

anonymous · Answer

I meant ur ans is wrong ... correct ans is 4.5 kms

lgbasallote · Answer

but does the raidus even matter =))

parthkohli · Answer

Maybe the mods will punish me.. I should answer questions I know

anonymous · Answer

i guess not, @lgbasallote :)

lgbasallote · Answer

i answer a lot of questions blindly parth :P just dont take the populated ones....

lgbasallote · Answer

too many witnesesses @ParthKohli =_=

anonymous · Answer

radius is given just for fun, i guess.. :/

anonymous · Answer

thanks @Arnab09

anonymous · Answer

you guys are fun

dumbcow · Answer

well you could add a part b) to the question:
how many times did he ride around the well?

divide distance by circumference:
4500/10pi = 1413.7

lgbasallote · Answer

he went around a thousand times?? ill be dizzy if i were him

anonymous · Answer

HEHEHE

anonymous · Answer

:D

lgbasallote · Answer

lol it should be 143 @dumbcow :P

parthkohli · Answer

My profession, certainly not in circus.

anonymous · Answer

Oh this is great really very great

anonymous · Answer

Then what do u think ... people who are replying work in circus.....@ParthKohli

dumbcow · Answer

@lgbasallote , you sure?  4.5km = 4,500m

anonymous · Answer

Thanks Guys

lgbasallote · Answer

4500/10 = 450...450/3.14 is 143.3

dumbcow · Answer

haha i Fail....forgot parenthesis on 10pi in calculator

lgbasallote · Answer

:PPP

.sam. · Answer

I'm thinking of using
$$v=54kph$$
$$v=15ms^{-1}$$

maybe you could find the angular velocity
$$v=r \omega$$
$$\omega=3rad/s$$
--------------------------------
Then use 
$$\theta=\omega t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2$$

.sam. · Answer

Since there's no angular acc, 

θ=ωt
θ=(3)(300)=900radians

.sam. · Answer

Which is 900m
