The correct answer is 69,000 meters.
To find how far the surface has moved in 150 seconds, we can use the concept of constant speed.
Given that the surface of the earth at the equator moved 4,600 meters in 10 seconds, we can calculate the speed at which it is moving:
Speed = Distance / Time
Speed = 4,600 meters / 10 seconds = 460 meters/second
Now, to find how far the surface has moved in 150 seconds, we can use the formula:
Distance = Speed * Time
Distance = 460 meters/second * 150 seconds = 69,000 meters
Therefore, the correct answer is 69,000 meters.
Response: 69,000 meters
To find how far the surface of the earth has moved in 150 seconds, we need to calculate the distance traveled per second and then multiply it by 150.
Given that the surface of the earth moves 4,600 meters in 10 seconds, we can find the distance traveled per second by dividing 4,600 by 10:
Distance traveled per second = 4,600 meters / 10 seconds = 460 meters/second
Now, to find the distance traveled in 150 seconds, we can multiply the distance traveled per second by the number of seconds:
Distance traveled in 150 seconds = 460 meters/second * 150 seconds = 69,000 meters
So, the correct answer is:
69,000 meters.
