Answer:

Circumference = Diameter × π

Circumference = 35 cm × 3.14

Circumference = 109.9 cm

The number of revolutions in 1 minute is given as 100, so the distance covered in 1 minute can be calculated as:

Distance in 1 minute = Circumference × Revolutions

Distance in 1 minute = 109.9 cm × 100

Distance in 1 minute = 10990 cm

To find the distance covered in half an hour, we need to multiply the distance in 1 minute by 30, since there are 30 minutes in half an hour:

Distance in half an hour = Distance in 1 minute × 30

Distance in half an hour = 10990 cm × 30

Distance in half an hour = 329700 cm

To express the answer in km, we need to divide the distance in cm by 100000, since there are 100000 cm in a km:

Distance in km = Distance in cm / 100000

Distance in km = 329700 cm / 100000

Distance in km = 3.297 km

Therefore the distance covered by the wheel in half an hour is 3.297 km.
