Why are watersheds useful?
lidiya [134]

Watersheds provide many of us with our drinking water supply, plus recreational opportunities and aesthetic beauty. Watersheds are areas from which water runs into a public water supply. Thus, much of the water you drink from a public source has passed through a watershed. Because of this, it's important that care be taken to minimize any contaminents that may find their way into a public water supply. A small example of a watershed would be the hills around a reservoir. A larger example would be the portions of Pennsylvania, New York, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware and Washington DC that are designated Chesapeake Bay watershed.

IgorC [24]
Ah for this problem you are thinking quite a bit hard on. The problem is actually simpler than it looks. The problem states that a bike travels at a constant speed of 3.1 m/s for 6 s and asks how far will it go?. To figure this out you simply need to take 3.1 times 6 s because every second the bike travels 3.1 m. So the answer to this problem would be 18.6 m
