Suppose you travel to Africa and drop a note in a sealed bottle in the Nile at its source. If the bottle traveled at 7 km/h on a

verage in the river, how long would it take the bottle to reach the muth of the nile? (the nile, the world longest river, is 6741 km long)

The time required for the bottle to reach the end of Nile is 963 hours

What is Speed?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of position of an object in any direction. Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered. Speed is a scalar quantity as it has only direction and no magnitude

Speed = Distance / Time

Given data ,

Let the speed of the bottle in the river be S = 7 km/h

Let the distance traveled by the bottle in the river be D = 6741 km

Now , the time taken by the bottle to reach the distance D with speed S is calculated by the equation

Speed = Distance / Time

and ,

Time = Distance / Speed

Substituting the values of distance and speed in the equation , we get

Time taken by the bottle = 6741 / 7

                                          = 963 hours

Therefore , the time required is 963 hours

Hence , The time required for the bottle to reach the end of Nile is 963 hours

Which step in the construction of copying a line segment ensures that the new line segment has
Nesterboy [21]

The steps 5 and 6 in the construction of a new line segment  ensures the lengths are equal.

A line segment in geometry has two different points on it that define its boundaries. Alternatively, we may define a line segment as a section of a line that joins two points.

Below are the steps for copying a line segment:

  • 1. Let's begin with a line segment we need to copy, AB.
  • 2. we take a point C at this stage. That will be one endpoint of the new line section, either below or above AB.
  • 3. Now we place the the compass pointer on the point A of line segment  AB.
  • 4. We spread the compass out until point B, making sure that its breadth corresponds to the length of AB.
  • 5. We place the compass tip on the point C created in step 2 without adjusting the compass's width.
  • 6. We now draw a rough arc without adjusting the compass's settings. we add a point D oh the arc . The new line segment will be formed by this.
  • 7. From C, draw a line to D;CD thus formed is equal to AB.

Hence steps 5 and 6 are the steps in the construction of a new line segment which ensures the lengths are equal.
