  • A770
  • B1100
  • C2200
  • D4400

Step-by-Step Solution

One revolution carries the cart forward by the wheel's circumference, π m, so 500 revolutions cover m. The trap 1100 uses π m, taking the given 1.4 m as the radius; 4400 uses 2π, doubling a circumference that already used the diameter; 770 uses the wheel's AREA π sq m as if it were the distance per turn.
Answer: C) 2200
