I can think of two solutions to this problem...

1) There is a wall in front of the girl ( at a distance of 5 feet from where she is standing). She kicks the ball in the direction of the wall. The ball hits the wall and rebounds back to the girl, thus travelling a distance of 10 feet.

2) She kicks the soccer ball vertically 5 feet high in the air. The ball comes back to her after travelling a total distance of 10 feet ( 5 feet up + 5 feet down).

An earthquake releases two types of traveling seismic waves, called transverse and longitudinal waves. The average speed of the
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1083.173 km

Explanation:

Speed of longitudinal waves = 9.1 km/s

Speed of transverse waves = 5.7 km/s

Time taken by the longitudinal wave is t

Time taken by the transverse wave is t+71

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance traveled by the longitudinal wave

\text{Distance}=9.1t

Distance traveled by the transverse wave

\text{Distance}=5.7(t+71)

Since both distances are equal

9.1t=5.7(t+71)\\\Rightarrow 9.1t-5.7t=404.7\\\Rightarrow 3.4t=404.7\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{404.7}{3.4}=119.03\ s

The time taken by the longitudinal wave is 119.03 seconds

Distance traveled by the longitudinal wave

9.1t=9.1\times 119.03=1083.173\ km

The earthquake is 1083.173 km away

A child is in danger of drowning in the Merimac river. The Merimac river has a current of 3.1 km/hr to the east. The child is 0.
kolezko [41]
In a problem where a child is danger form drowning from a river who has a current of 3.1km/hr to east and the child is 0.6km fro the shore and the upstream is 2,5km from the dock. So base on the question the boat with a speed of 24.8 km/hr is 1.9 km because the child is 0.6 km off the dock so 2.5 minus 0.6
