in 10 seconds the surface of the Earth at the equator has moved 4,600 M how far will the surface move in 150 seconds

Answer 1

To find out how far the surface will move in 150 seconds, we can use a proportion.

Let "x" be the distance moved in 150 seconds.

We have the following proportion:
10 seconds ------ 4,600 m
150 seconds ----- x

Using the property of proportions (cross-multiplication), we can find "x":
10 * x = 150 * 4,600
10x = 690,000
x = 690,000 / 10
x = 69,000

Therefore, the surface of the Earth will move 69,000 meters in 150 seconds.
