Answer:

5.67 mph

Explanation:

average rate of speed = total distance traveled / time traveled

total distance traveled = 51 miles

time traveled = 9 hours

average rate of speed = 51 miles / 9 hours

                                     = 5.67 mph

hence the average rate of speed taken by a ship to cross from one end of a canal to the other end which is 51 miles at a time of 9 hours is approximately

5.67 mph.

moving at this speed indicates that the ship is running on a very low speed because if it were to be a car, the car would cover that same distance at a faster time.

<span>1) 51 divided by 9= 5.6 miles per hour 
2) I'm not sure about this one, but I think it's because at the ends, you are still in the Atlantic or Pacific ocean until you get farther into the Panama Canal.</span>

One way Meritocracy was created during the han dyansty? Please give a straight forward answer
galina1969 [7]

Answer: Civil service examinations

Explanation:

A Meritocracy refers to a system of government where those in power only got to that position by merit. In other words they showed that they were capable of efficiently managing the roles and responsibilities that came with their positions.

The Han dynasty laid the foundations for a meritocracy in China when they demanded that all Civil servants take examinations based on Confucian ideals to determine their competence.

Performance was directly correlated with the position one got in the exam which influenced people to study really hard for these exams thereby gaining the necessary knowledge to run the office they would be assigned to.
