@ glatt's clock: NO, because that's impossible...but point A goes around point B.

Only if point A is moving and point B is stationary.

This is Squirrel Island, Maine
If a boater goes all the way around the island, does it become a green chocolate rabbit ? . |

The longest day of the year is time to resurrect this poll.

yeah, no.
not a paradox. a lie. if the blue line is, in FACT the circumference of the blue circle, then the red wheel has gone farther than IT'S circumference.

"The wheels roll without slipping" is impossible. One or the other can roll without slipping, but both can't. Either the blue wheel is in contact with the ground, and the red wheel "slips," or the red wheel is in contact with some sort of raised rail or other surface it can ride on, and the blue wheel "drags."
If you ever played with one of these, you know what I'm talking about. |
