The circle circumference is (50 x pi) meters, or approximately 157 meters. The velocity of 314 m/min means that the driver completes 2 laps/min. The frequency in Hz is thus 2 laps/1 min x 1 min/60 sec = 1/30 Hz = 0.03 Hz.
- 0.0027 Hz, incorrect, This answer results from mistaking the formula for the area of a circle (which is pi times the square of the radius) with the formula for circumference (pi times diameter).
- 0.03 Hz, correct.
- 2 Hz, incorrect, This is laps/min rather than laps/second.
- 6.25 Hz, incorrect, This is the area divided by the velocity, with units of 1/min rather than 1/sec.
