Spokes that are contained within the wheel's circumference, being fixed in a semi-permanent manner to allow the circular movement of the said wheel.
A wheel with 64 spokes will have 64 spaces between the spokes.
A wheel with 10 spokes will have 10 spaces between the spokes.
18. Picture it this way. If a wagon wheel had 2 spaces, it is easy to see that it would have two spokes, say, top and bottom. Adding another spoke would block off another space. From this idea, you can see that the number of spaces must equal the number of spokes.
A wheel with 12 spaces will have 12 spokes.
360 / 30 = 12 , so 12 spokes in that wheel.
"Spokes" are the things that branch out from the centre of wheels to the outside edge of the wheel, to stabilise them. So wagon spokes are the things that branch out of wagon wheel centres (usually wooden, in this case). Bicycle wheels also have spokes.
A wheel
Then the wheel would collapse. Which would happen some time Before all the spokes had gone.
18.4 inches
So the wheel is flexible but firm
a bicycle wheel?
