    If an object travels at five feet per second, how many feet does it travel in one hour?

    • 300

    • 720

    • 1800

    • 18000

    • 21000

    Correct Answer
    A. 18000
    Explanation
    If an object travels at a rate of five feet per second, to find out how many feet it travels in one hour, we need to convert the time from seconds to hours. There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour, so there are 60*60=3600 seconds in an hour. Therefore, if the object travels at five feet per second, it will travel 5*3600=18000 feet in one hour.

    • 4 seconds

    • 4 hours

    • 40 Seconds

    Correct Answer
    A. 4 minutes
    Explanation
    During its rotation, the Earth takes approximately 24 hours to complete a full 360° rotation. Therefore, to calculate how long it takes for the Earth to turn 1° longitude, we divide 24 hours by 360°, which gives us 4 minutes.

    The correct answer is outer mantle. The outer mantle is the layer of the Earth that is located immediately below the crust. It is made up of solid rock and is part of the larger mantle region. The outer mantle plays a crucial role in the movement of tectonic plates and the convection currents that occur within the Earth's interior.

    The zoo had some lions and some parrots. The keeper counted 15 heads and 50 legs. How many Lions were there?

    • 9

    • 11

    • 12

    • 10

    Correct Answer
    A. 10
    Explanation
    To solve this problem, we can use a system of equations. Let's assume that there are "x" lions and "y" parrots in the zoo. Lions have 4 legs each, while parrots have 2 legs each. From the given information, we can create two equations: x + y = 15 (total number of heads) and 4x + 2y = 50 (total number of legs). Solving these equations simultaneously, we find that x = 10, which means there are 10 lions in the zoo.
