Therefore, adding 1 foot to the circumference means this is now 2pi * (r+1) = (2pi*r) + 2pi
That's how I figured it out. Sub "circumference" with "radius" #physicsbrain

My undergrad degree was Physics. The curriculum taught me how to attack these problems quite well. In this case it really doesn't depend on the radius at all.
