First find the circumference of the round wheel. Then make any mark on the wheel and mark it as 0. Now divide rest of the wheel in equal no. of parts and on each mark, write how much inch it covers.
For eg, if circumference of the wheel is 10 inches, divide the wheel in 10 equal parts with each part covering 1 inch.
Now take the 0 mark on the wheel at the starting point of the linear distance you want to measure. now turn the wheel and count no. of turns till the end of distance.
write down the point where the wheel stops at end.
Now the length is =no. of turns X circumference of the wheel + length marked where wheel stopped.
Lets say with wheel of circumference 10 inches, no. of turns it took was 7 and stopped at marked point 8 inches on the wheel., so it distance covered is 70 + 8 = 78 inches.
+++ You can buy instruments for exactly this task, for example in surveying roads. They consist simply of a wheel and turns-counter on a handle, and are used by pushing them along the road to be measured. Somewhat similar devices are used for measuring lengths of ropes etc.

Is it possible that displasment is zero but not the distance?
Yes. If you end up where you started, your displacement is zero, but the distance you travel is the actual amount of ground covered. For example, if you made a round trip of 50 miles, your displacement would be zero miles, but your distance would be 50 miles. This is because the final position and the initial position are the same. Round trips always have a displacement of zero.
What is Displacement Of An Object For A Round Trip Between Two Locations?
The displacement of an object for a round trip between two locations is zero if the object returns to its starting point after completing the journey. This is because displacement is a vector quantity that represents the straight line distance and direction between the initial and final positions of an object, and a round trip involves equal distance covered in opposite directions.
How can you measure distance with sound waves?
Animals such as bats project sound waves at objects and use the time until the perception the reflected wave to determine the distance of the object. This is called echolocation. Humans have used the same principles to develop Sonar technology, which is used primarily underwater to detect objects under water (we have radar and plain sight to detect objects in air).
What is the distance traveled by a boy who walks on a circular track and reaches back to the starting point often completing one round?
The distance traveled by the boy would be the circumference of the circle, which is calculated using the formula: Circumference = 2πr, where r is the radius of the circle. When the boy completes one round on the circular track, he travels a distance equal to the circumference of the circle.
Which inclined plane wrapped round a rod?
The inclined plane wrapped around a rod is known as a screw. It is a simple machine that converts rotational motion into linear motion. By rotating the screw, objects can be moved up or down along its length.
How do you calculate how many linear feet of bead-board to purchase?
Measure the length of each wall. Add those figures up and you get Linear footage. Divide the total linear footage by the width of the panels and round up, this is the number of planks you will need.
Do calipers measure round objects?
Calipers can measure the diameter of round objects by using the outside jaws for external measurements and the inside jaws for internal measurements. By measuring the distance across the round object with the jaws, the caliper can provide an accurate reading of its size.
How many square feet round is the juan islands?
To measure how big around something is you need to use linear measurement. Square feet is a square measurement (2 dimensional) not a linear measurement (1 dimensional) so your question, the way you worded it, is unanswerable.
What is the distance round England?
the rough distance round the coast of England is 2500 miles
What is the larger measure of an angle?
There is no limit to the measure of an angle, if you keep going round and round.
How do you measure a round trampoline?
Measure its diameter.
A sonar systems measure distance by determining the?
time it takes for sound waves to travel to an object and back. By calculating the round-trip time and knowing the speed of sound in water, the distance can be accurately determined.
How do you round 17.26 to the nearest whole number?
The two possible candidates are 17 and 18. distance from 17.26 to 17 = 0.26 distance from 17.26 to 18 = 0.74 so 17 is the nearest whole number.
What is difference between inch and linear inch?
An inch can be anything. It can be round, square, triangle or any number of shapes. But, a linear inch is a straight line only.
Is the relationship between the height of a staircase and the number of steps linear?
Yes, as a rule. Of course, the number of steps has to round to an integer. so the relation is not quite linear.
Is it possible that displasment is zero but not the distance?
Yes. If you end up where you started, your displacement is zero, but the distance you travel is the actual amount of ground covered. For example, if you made a round trip of 50 miles, your displacement would be zero miles, but your distance would be 50 miles. This is because the final position and the initial position are the same. Round trips always have a displacement of zero.
What is the perimeter of a semicircle if the perimeter of the circle is 5.14?
If the distance round the circle is 5.14 units then the distance round 1/2 of it would be 2.57 units.
