A bug on a bicycle wheel moves in a circle through 40 r radians. If the radius of the wheel is 0.6 meters in length, what is the total linear distance the rock moved? Note: give only your numerical answer. Give your answer in units of meters, however please do not include units in your answer below. Including units in your answer will result in your answer being incorrectly scored.
