Answer:


\text{Radius} = 1.4 m


\text{Distance covered in One revolution} = 2\pi r


2\pi r =


2*22=(1.4)/(7)


= 8.8 \ \text{m}


\text{Distance covered in 250 revolutions}


= 8.8 \ \text{m}* 250


\bold{= 2200 \ m}


\it{Hope \ this \ is \ the \ answer \ you \ were \ looking \ for.}

Answer:

The distance covered by a wheel is given by the formula:

distance = circumference of the wheel x number of revolutions

The circumference of the wheel can be found using the formula:

circumference = 2πr

where r is the radius of the wheel.

Substituting the given values, we get:

circumference = 2π(1.4) = 2π(1.4) = 2(22/7)(1.4) = 8.8 meters

Therefore, the distance covered by the wheel in 250 revolutions is:

distance = 8.8 x 250 = 2200 meters

So, the wheel covers a distance of 2200 meters if it makes 250 revolutions.
