There are nearly 300 million passenger cars in the U.S. The average gas mileage is 25 MPG (miles per gallon) and each car is dri

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

1.0236 billion metric tons

Explanation:

Given Parameters

Number of cars = 300000000

Average gas mileage per car = 25 MPG

Average distance covered by a car in one year = 10000 miles

CO2 Emission = 8.53 kg/gallon

Derivations from the given parameters,

If the average gas mileage per car is 25 MPG, then the volume of fuel consumed by a car in a year is:

10000 miles ÷ 25 MPG = 400 gallons

The CO2 emission for one car in a year is:

400 gallons × 8.53 kg/gallon = 3412 kg or 3.412 metric tons (note: 1000 kg = 1 metric ton)

The CO2 emission for 300000000 cars in year is:

3.412 metric tons × 300000000 = 1023600000 kg = 1.0236 billion metric tons

3. If you see a flash of lightning and hear thunder 8 seconds later, how far is the lightning from you? 4. Why is lightning most

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

2.656 km

Explanation:

Velocity of sound in the air = 332 m/s

time t= 8 sec

$distance = velocity\times time$

$distance= 332\times8$

=2656 meters =2.656 km

therefore, distance = 2.656 km

Florida has lightening quite often because

Florida receives a lot of heat through out the year, air close the ground is warmed and frequent sea breezes (Florida is surrounded by seas and oceans) provide the necessary lift and moisture for the formation of thunderstorms. This why lightning is common Florida
