a) It will make a dotted line (or if the bike is not traveling straight, a dotted curve).
b) It will travel the circumference of the wheel between each mark.
The circumference of the wheel = 2pi * 46 cm = 92pi cm
c) 1 km = 1,000 m = 100,000 cm
100,000 / (92pi) ≈ 345.989
Depending on where the paint was on the wheel to begin with, there will be either 345 marks or 346 marks.
