Is it true that the distance travelled

Question:

Is it true that the distance travelled by a circular wheel of diameter d cm in one revolution is 2πd cm? Why?

Solution:

False

Because the distance travelled by the wheel in one revolution is equal to its circumference i.e., πd.

i.e.,                                π(2r) = 2 πr = Circumference of wheel                                   [∵d = 2r]
