(Average speed in miles) Assume that a runner runs 15 kilometers in 50 minutesand 30 seconds. Write a program that displays the average speed in miles per hour.(Note that 1 mile is 1.6 kilometers.)
Assume that a runner runs 15 kilometers in 50 minutes and 30 seconds. Write a program that displaysthe average speed in miles per hour. (Note that 1 mile is 1.6 kilometers.).
Note: You have to replace the question mark with the correct answer.
The great circle distance is the distance betweentwo points on the surface of a sphere. Let (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) be the geographicallatitude and longitude of two points. The great circle distance between the twopoints can be computed using the following formula:d = radius X arccos(sin (x1) X sin(x2) + cos(x1) X cos(x2) X cos(y1 - y2))Write a program that prompts the user to enter the latitude and longitude of twopoints on the earth in degrees and displays its great circle distance. The averageradius of the earth is 6,371.01 km. Note you need to convert the degrees into radiansusing the Math.toRadians method since the Java trigonometric methods useradians. The latitude and longitude degrees in the formula are for north and west.Use negative to indicate south and east degrees. Here is a sample run:
Enter point 1 (latitude and longitude) in degrees: 39.55 −116.25 ↵EnterEnter point 2 (latitude and longitude) in degrees: 41.5 87.37 ↵EnterThe distance between the two points is…

- 4. During each summer, John and Jessica grow vegetables in their backyard and buy seeds and fertilizer from a local nursery. The nursery carries different types of vegetable fertilizers in various bag sizes. When buying a particular fertilizer, they want to know the price of the fertilizer per pound and the cost of fertilizing per square foot. The following program prompts the user to enter the size of the fertilizer bag, in pounds, the cost of the bag, and the area, in square feet, that can be covered by the bag. The program should output the desired result. However, the program contains logic errors. Find and correct the logic errors so that the program works properly. // Logic errors. #include #include using namespace std; int main() { double costs double area; double bagsize; cout > bagsize; cout > cost; cout > area; cout << endl; cout << "The cost of the fertilizer per pound is: $" << bagsize / cost << endl; cout << "The cost of fertilizing per square foot is: $" << area / cost << endl; return 0; }arrow_forwardAssume that a runner runs 24 miles in 1 hour, 40minutes, and 35 seconds.
