Problems based on Perimeter and area of a circle

Solution:

Let ‘r’ be the radius of the wheel.

?

Circumference = of the wheel

Distance covered in one rotation.

= 90 Km

∵ 𝟗𝟎 𝐊𝐦= 90 x 1000 x 100 cm

= 9000000

25000

= 360 cm

2πr = 360 cm

Hence, the radius of the wheel is 57.27cm

?

r = 57.27 cm

2 x 22 x r = 360cm

r = 360x7 cm 2x22

= 180 x 7

Q) The diameter of a cart wheel is 21 cm. How many revolutions will it make in moving 1.32 km?

Problems based on Perimeter and area of a circle

21 cm

Given: Diameter of the cart wheel = 21 cm

To Find: Number of revolutions = ? made in 1.32 Km

6 of 15

Solution: Let the radius of the cart wheel be ’r’.

Thus, r = Diameter = 21 cm

Converting 1.32 Km into cm, we get,

Problems based on Perimeter and area of a circle

21 cm

1.32 Km = 1.32 x 1000 m [1 Km = 1000 m]

= 1.32 x 1000 x 100 cm [1m = 100 cm]

= 132000 cm

Problems based on Perimeter and area of a circle

Number of revolutions = Total distance covered

Circumference (Distance covered by 1 round of the cart wheel)

Hence, the cart wheel will make 2000 revolutions in moving

1.32 km.

2000

= 132000 cm

66 cm

= 12000

Q) A wheel of a bicycle makes 6 revolutions per second. If the diameter of the wheel is 80 cm, find its speed.

Problems based on Perimeter and area of a circle

Given: Number of revolutions per second = 6 Diameter = 80cm

To find:

Speed = ?

Formula:

Speed = Distance

Time

10 of 15

Solution: Let the radius of the wheel be denoted as ‘r’.

Thus, r = Diameter = 80 = 40 cm

Circumference of the wheel = 2 πr

= 2x22x 40 cm

Distance covered in 1 revolution = circumference = 251.42cm Distance covered in 6 revolutions

= 6 x Distance covered in 1 revolution

Problems based on Perimeter and area of a circle

= 6 x 251.42 cm

= 1508.52 cm

Since, 1 m = 100 cm

?m = 1508.52 cm

= 1508.52 cm

100

= 15.08 m

15.08 m = 1508.52 cm

Problems based on Perimeter and area of a circle

Speed = Distance

Time

= 15.08 m

1 second

Result: Speed = 15.08 m/second

Hence, the speed of the wheel is 15.08m/second.

Q) Find the radius of the circle whose perimeter and area are numerically equal.

Problems based on Perimeter and area of a circle

Given: Perimeter and the area of the circle are equal To Find: Radius of the circle = ?

Solution: Let ‘r’ be the radius of the circle.

Then, its area = πr2 and its perimeter = 2πr

It is given that the area of the circle is numerically equal to its perimeter.

14 of 15

Thus, πr2 = 2πr πr2 - 2πr = 0

Problems based on Perimeter and area of a circle

πr(r-2) = 0 Either πr = 0 or

r-2 = 0

r = 0 (rejected) or r = 2

Hence, the radius of the circle is

2 units
