The minimum number of tickets that could admit all of them is six (6).

This thing is impossible to explain in words, so I shall attempt it with a diagram:

Here are the six ladies:

       ( A )      ( B )
          |           |
          |           |
       ( C )      ( D )
          |           |
          |           |
       ( E )       ( F )  

--  'E'  and  'F'  are the daughters of  'C'  and  'D' .

--  'C'  and  'D'  are the daughters of  'A'  and  'B' .

So look what we have now:

--  'A'  and  'B'  are the mothers of  'C'  and  'D' .
     There's 2 of the mothers.

--  'C'  and  'D'  are the mothers of  'E'  and  'F' .
     There's the OTHER 2 mothers. 
 
--  'A'  and  'B'  are the grandmothers of  'E'  and  'F' .
    There's the 2 grandmothers.

--  'E'  and  'F'  are the daughters of  'C'  and  'D' .
     There's 2 of the daughters.

--  'C'  and  'D'  are the daughters of  'A'  and  'B' .
     There's the OTHER 2 daughters.

You want to know what ? !
The group is even bigger than THAT.
There are also 2 GRAND-daughters in the family ...  'E'  and  'F' .

So now you have a list of 12 people ! ... 4 mothers, 2 grandmothers,
4 daughters, and 2 grand-daughters ... and they all get in to the
Christmas Market with only six tickets.    Legally !

Such a deal !

Don't forget :  Christmas this year is also the first day of Chanukah !
                     All for the same price !

What is the horsepower of a 1,500 kg car that can go to the top of a 360 m high hill in exactly 1 min?
Airida [17]

Answer:

W = m g h        work that must be done on car

P = W / t       power that must be input (in Watts)

P = m g h / t = 1500 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 360 m /  60 sec

P = 88,200 watts

P = 88,200 watts / 746 watts / hp = 118 hp

A sphere of radius r = 5cm carries a uniform volume charge density rho = 400 nC/m^3. Q. What is the total charge Q of the sphere
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The total charge Q of the sphere is 2.094\times10^{-10}\ C.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 5 cm

Charge density J= 400\ nC/m^3

We need to calculate the total charge Q of the sphere

Using formula of charge

q=\rho V

Where, \rho = charge density

V = volume

Put the value into the formula

q=\rho\times(\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3)

Put the value into the formula

q=\dfrac{4}{3}\times\pi\times400\times10^{-9}\times(5\times10^{-2})^3

q=2.094\times10^{-10}\ C

Hence, The total charge Q of the sphere is 2.094\times10^{-10}\ C.
