Answer:

An electric shock occurs when a person comes into contact with an electrical energy source. Electrical energy flows through a portion of the body causing a shock. If you scuff your feet on your living room rug, you pick up extra electrons and have a negative charge. Electrons move more easily through certain materials like metal, which scientists call conductors. The shock he received was a result of the quick movement of these electrons.

<h2>Average speed of transit train is 60 mph</h2>

Explanation:

Average speed of passenger train = 45 mph

Time taken from station A to station B for passenger train  = 10:00 - 6:00 = 4 hours

Distance between station A to station B = 45 x 4 = 180 miles.

Time taken from station A to station B for transit train  =  4 - 1 = 3 hours

Distance between station A to station B = Average speed of transit train x Time taken from station A to station B for transit train

180 = Average speed of transit train x 3

Average speed of transit train = 60 mph

Average speed of transit train is 60 mph
