f1perez Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 Hello everyone, I have a question about the rolling thumder and its actual circumference. I uderstand that it is 2 3/8 in diameter but what is the actual circumferece? In other words if you were to place a tape measure around the handle fully encircleing the handle what would it's circumference be in inches? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 I believe you could do pi*diameter so 3.1415926535*2.375 would give you 7.46 inches in circumference. Of course it would probably be better to just go out and measure one, but since i dont have one with me, this is the best i can do for ya.

blobue Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 I thought about posting the same smart ass answer viking. Glad to see someone remembers how to get the circumference of a circle. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You shoud have rounded up to 3.1415926536, since the next digit is 8! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davekline Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 The volume enclosed by the grip surface can be calculated by muliplying the length of the handle, pi, and the square of the radius of the handle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
