    of radius 6 cm is 2√7 cm.

    19. A Ferris wheel (or a big wheel in the United Kingdom) is an amusement ride consisting of a
    rotating upright wheel with multiple passenger carrying components (commonly referred to as
    passenger cars, cabins, tubs, capsules, gondolas, or pods) attached to the rim in such a way that
    as the wheel turns, they are kept upright, usually by gravity.
