A car’s wheel are 28 inches in diameter. How far (in miles) will the car travel if its wheels revolve 10000 times without slipping?

Solution:

s = distance

s = r θ

s = 14 inches (10 000)

s = 140 000 inches

*convert inches to feet to meter

s = 3556 meters

*convert meters to miles

s = 3.556 miles

The car will travel 3.556 miles

The Best Country for Mechanical Engineers

All areas of engineering on today's generation are on demand! More to mechanical engineers, because of the industry's demand on factories and facilities that ease people's lives. But for one to choose the best country for mechanical engineers, here's my opinion on that. Every industrialized or any developing country needs every bit of mechanical engineers. When a country's focus target is to build their own industries to somehow rise their status or to help their citizens, factories will be made or buildings, and roads. Thus, not only mechanical engineers, but also all kind of engineers will be on demand. On this era, as what we can observe, i would suggest the UAE. But - but, if your own country is in need of mechabical engineers, i would really suggest to practice your expertise to yout own land - this help your nation and there will be a sense of pride to aid your own people.
