A car is moving in a circular path with a radius of 50 metres. If the car completes one full revolution in 20 seconds, what is its speed?

The speed of an object in uniform circular motion is given by the formula: 

speed = (2πr) / T, 

where r is the radius of the circle and T is the time taken to complete one revolution. Plugging in the values, 

we get speed = (2π x 50) / 20 = 5 m/s.
