The average speed can be easily calculated by taking the ratio of distance and time. That is:

average speed = distance / time

 

so calculating:

average speed = 4875 ft / 6.85 minutes

<span>average speed = 711.68 ft / min</span>

<u>Answer</u>:

Speed of the runner is 8.08 miles per hour approximately.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given:

A runner runs =4875 ft

Time Taken = 6.85 minutes.

To Find:  

Average speed of the runner in miles per hour=?

Solution:

Distance = Speed x time

Conveting feet into miles:

=>Distance= 4875\times\frac{1}{5280} miles

=>Distance = 0.9232955 miles

Converting minutes into hours:

time = 6.85 minutes

=> 6.85\times \frac{1}{60}  hours

=> \frac{6.85}{60}= 0.1141667 hours.

Now, we know that, distance = speed x time  

Then, 0.9232955 miles = speed x 0.1141667 hours  

=>speed = \frac{0.9232955}{0.1141667}

=>speed = 8.08725749

When you rub a balloon on a sweater, for example, some electrons come off and end up on the balloon. The fibers have lost electrons giving them a positive charge. The rubber gained electrons giving it a negative charge. ... The positively charged fibers are now attracted to the negatively charged balloon.

Okay guys I need serious help!!

The traditional forecast process employed by most NMHSs involves forecasters producing text-based, sensible, weather-element forecast products (e.g. maximum/minimum temperature, cloud cover) using numerical weather prediction (NWP) output as guidance. The process is typically schedule-driven, product-oriented and labour-intensive. Over the last decade, technological advances and scientific breakthroughs have allowed NMHSs’ hydrometeorological forecasts and warnings to become much more specific and accurate.

As computer technology and high-speed dissemination systems evolved (e.g. Internet), National Weather Service (NWS) customers/partners were demanding detailed forecasts in gridded, digital and graphic formats. Traditional NWS text forecast products limit the amount of additional information that can be conveyed to the user community. The concept of digital database forecasting provides the capability to meet customer/partner demands for more accurate, detailed hydrometeorological fore­casts. Digital database forecasting also offers one of the most exciting opportunities to integrate PWS forecast dissemination and service delivery, which most effectively serves the user community.

Both the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA)/National Weather Service and Environment Canada are currently using digital database forecasting technology to produce routine forecasts. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology is in the process of evaluating and developing an implementation plan for database forecasting using the NOAA/NWS National Digital Forecast Database approach.

edward travels 150 kilometers due west and then 200 kilometers in a direction 60 degrees north of west.what is his displacement
laila [671]

The displacement of Edward in the westerly direction is determined as 180.27 km.

<h3>Displacement of Edward</h3>

The displacement of Edward is calculated as follows;

R² = a² + b² - 2abcosθ

R² = 150² + 200² - 2(150 x 200) x cos60

R² = 32500

R = 180.27 km

Thus, the displacement of Edward in the westerly direction is determined as 180.27 km.
