Answer:

The woman's average speed must have been 7.14miles/hour. This is the ratio of the total distance she covered/traveled to the total time it took her to cover that distance.

Explanation:

Here is the calculation,

Total distance = 26.2miles

Total time = 3hours and 40min.

40min = (40min/60min) × 1hour = 0.67hour. This is basically converting time in mins to time in hours.

Therefore total time taken = 3hours and 40mins = 3 hours + 0.67 hours = 3.67hours

Average speed = Total distance/Total time taken

Average speed = 26.2miles/3.67 hours = 7.14 miles/hour

3 hours and 40 minutes is equivalent to 3.667 hours. If a woman must have run another marathon (of 26.2 miles) within that time, then her minimum average speed in mph can be calculated by dividing the distance by time:
26.2 miles / 3.667 hours = 7.145 miles per hour

During spring tide, the sun and moon are aligned. Which statement below best describes the tidal range during a spring tide?
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A ) The smallest tidal ranges are less than 1 m (3 feet). The highest tides, called spring tides, are formed when the earth, sun and moon are lined up in a row. This happens every two weeks during a new moon or full moon. Smaller tides, called neap tides, are formed when the earth, sun and moon form a right angle.

C ) The most extreme tidal range occurs during spring tides, when the gravitational forces of both the Moon and Sun are aligned (syzygy), reinforcing each other in the same direction (new moon) or in opposite directions (full moon).

Answer:

The correct option is;

Sphere I is positively charged and sphere II is negatively charged

Explanation:

The charging of the spheres by induction is achieved by introducing a charge to the metal spheres that are insulated from the ground to prevent loss of charge by placing them on insulating stand

The two spheres are brought into contact by the connection of a conducting wire between the spheres I and II

The presence of the positively charged sphere III draws attracts electrons towards sphere II while the net positive charge moves towards sphere I

While the spheres I and II are still polarized, the conducting wire is removed  while the presence of sphere III continues to keep sphere II negative compared to sphere I

After removing the connecting wire, sphere III is removed leaving the excess negative charge on sphere II and the excess positive charge on sphere I

The net charges then evenly redistribute themselves on each sphere creating two oppositely charged spheres.

What if we all jumped at the same time?

Technically, this delivers a lot of energy into the Earth, but it’s spread out over a large enough area that it doesn’t do much more than leave footprints in a lot of gardens. A slight pulse of pressure spreads through the North American continental crust and dissipates with little effect. The sound of all those feet hitting the ground creates a loud, drawn-out roar which lasts many seconds.
