The correct answer is: $3.25 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$
Given, $\begin{aligned} r & =25 \mathrm{~cm}=0.25 \mathrm{~m} \\ \omega & =13 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{s}\end{aligned}$
$\because$ Linear speed $=$ Radius $\times$ Angular speed
$\begin{array}{llrl}\text { or } & & v & =r \omega \\ \therefore & & & =0.25 \times 13 \\ \Rightarrow & & v & =3.25 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\end{array}$
