Why do cats have tails?

1 answer:

3 0

Cats have tails to help their balance. Similar to the stick a trapeze/high wire walker uses.

The tail helps to serve as a counterbalance when cats walk on narrow spaces such as fences or shelves. The tail also aids in balance when a cat is running after or jumping on prey.

Just so you know....Cats can live without tails.

a.Calculate the average speed (in km/h) of Charlie, who runs to the store 4 kilometers away in 30 minutes. b.Calculate the dista

sveta [45]

as per the question charlie runs to the store which is 4 km away

hence the total distance covered [S] is 4 km

he takes 30 minutes to reach the store.

hence the total time taken [t] = 30 minutes=0.5 hour

We have to calculate the average speed.

the average speed[v]= $=\frac{S}{t}$

= $\frac{4 km}{0.5 hour}$

=8 km/hour

then we have to calculate the total distance traveled by charlie in 1 hour.

the distance covered S= $V_{avg} *t$

=8 km/hour ×1 hour

=8 km

Hence the average speed of charlie is 8 km/hour and he covers a distance of 8 km in 1 hour.
