(2.00 hours) x (3,600 seconds/hour)  =  7,200 seconds

(9.00 minutes) x (60 seconds/minute)  =  540 seconds

The record time = (7,200 + 540 + 21) = 7,761 seconds

Distance  =  (speed) x (time)

                 = (5.436 m/s) x (7,761 sec)  =<span>  42,188.8 meters
________________________________________________
</span>
The official length of the marathon run is  42,195 meters.
If we divide that by the record time in the question, we get

                       5.4368... m/s .

Rounded to the nearest thousandth, that's  5.437 m/s.

If the question had given the speed as  5.437  instead of  5.436 ,
then we would have calculated the distance to be 

            (5.437 m/s) x (7,761 sec)  =<span>  42,196.6 meters,

4.6 meters closer to the official distance than the answer we did get.

Explanation:

In the parallel combination, the equivalent resistance is given by :

\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}+....

4. When three 150 ohms resistors are connected in parallel, the equivalent is given by :

\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{150}+\dfrac{1}{150}+\dfrac{1}{150}\\\\R=50\ \Omega

5. Three resistors of 20 ohms, 40 ohms and 100 ohms are connected in parallel, So,

\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{40}+\dfrac{1}{100}\\\\=11.76\ \Omega

Hence, this is the required solution.

Water in the oceans may become fresh water available to humans through the processes of
Darya [45]
<span>Water in the oceans may become fresh water available to humans through the processes of evaporation, condensation and precipitation.

In these processes, water is heated to a very high temperature until it evaporates in order to kill the germs and remove the salts which remains after water evaporation. The next step in condensing the water vapor (which is now fresh) and precipitating this vapor to be used by humans.</span>
