A windshield wiper is 50 cm long. In one sweep it turns through an angle of 115°. Calculate the distance (length) it covers in one sweep. Round to the nearest whole number.

The distance in one sweep is 100 cm approximately

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the distance the wiper covers in one sweep

Mathematically;

we have a structure like an arc of a circle. It is the length of this arc we want to calculate.

The formula for the length of an arc is;

theta/360 * 2 * pi * r

r is the radius which in this case is 50 cm

We have ;

115/360 * 2 * 3.1412 * 50 = 100 cm approximately

it has changed from the width and the height.
