Argument about where the gas comes from When we did the investigation…………
we
found that the data showed that

So since the snail is moving at 3.6  miles per hour you multiply by 5280 to change it into feet per hour. so you get 36*528 ft per hour. since there are 3600 seconds in an hour, you divide 36*528 by 3600. so simplifying we get 528/100 which is 5.28 ft per second

Distance covered = speed x timethe distance traveled going against the stream = distance traveled with the stream.therefore it is the speed and the time that are the variables.as he travels the same distance both ways, speed x time is the same for each way.going upstream his speed is 4 kph; going downstream his speed is 6 kph.therefore we have two simultaneous equations: time upstream x 4 = time downstream x 6time upstream + time downstream = 60 minutestherefore we have the equation: time upstream = 6/10 hour, time downstream therefore = 4/10 hour.distance traveled at 4km/hr in 6/10 hour = 24/10 = 2.4km.check: distance traveled at 6km/hr in 4/10 hour = 24/10 = 2.4km.
