This is because the nasal mucus is blocking the nasal passage, meaning that if there is anything that he/she is trying to smell will be blocked by the mucus and will not be able to go down into the nasal passage where the smells are detected.

If you have a runny nose then the mucus will block the path that smell goes through. So if you are trying to smell a flower then you will have a hard time because the mucus is in the way, or blocking the entrance path. Hope this helps:)

<h2>Answer: 469 feet</h2>

Explanation:

This problem is a good example of Vertical motion, where the main equation for this situation is:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)

Where:

y is the height of the stone at 6s (the value we want to find)

y_{o}=925ft is the initial height of the stone

V_{o}=20ft/s is the initial velocity of the stone

t=6s is the time  at which we need to find the height

g=32ft/s^{2} is the acceleration due to gravity

Having this clear, let's find y from (1):

y=925ft+(20ft/s)(6s)-\frac{1}{2}(32ft/s^{2})(6s)^{2} (2)

Finally:

y=469ft This is the height of the stone at t=6s
