How many inches are in a mile?
1 inch = .000016 miles.
the two answers given are approx. the same, however I refuse to round off irrational numbers.
I did my calcualtion in feet. Opps!
My calculation was all messed up!
In my humble opinion you are right, souldog.
Goodz13
Seeing as you are a super moderator I am going to accuss you of simply taking my answer and converting it to inches.:D
Unless I am wrong your answer is correct, but you rounded pi off to 3.14. uggg
Souldog and Goodz have the correct answer.
delta c = 2 * pi * delta r
Ans: 6.28... inches
Are you sure? I thought that there was 5280 ft in a mile, so there would be 63360 " in a mile.Quote:

1/63360 = .0000157828282.. ad infinitum
Here I was complaing about rounding off and I rounded off the conversion factor
oh Dr. Luz you have still rounded it off. I will never be satisfied with a finite approximation!!!:mad:
pi
that's better
Don't mind me, it's been a long day!:D
Who makes the next question?
Goodz13. I am afraid of asking questions. Life is a long journey to find the answer to THE QUESTION. If you ask a question what if you get THE ANSWER. the journey would be over.
Not if the answer leads to more questions.Quote:
