What you have to do is answer a question. if you get the answer right and the poster comfirms it then you may ask the next question. If the poster doesn't respond then someone in the topic can tell you if its correct. You have 24 hours for each question or it will be forfeited to me. I'll start with something simple.
If it was possible for a ballon to drift off into the jet stream how many days, weeks, months, or years would it take it to go around the world?
A) 1 Day
B) 7 Days
C) 14 Days
D) 30 Days
E) 6 Months
F) 1 Year
G) 5 Years
H) 10 Years
I) 25 Years
J) 50 Years
K) 100 Years
Enjoy

too many variables to consider... size of the ballon, El Nino effects on the jetstream, what was the balloon filled with, does it have a string attached for the drag coefficient to take place?
So I would have to say there is no way to determine it

Depending on how fast the jetstream is going, as little as 14 days. So my final answer is:
C) 14 days

I'm assuming an average rate of speed of 5 Mph. Knowing nothing about how the weather/jetstream works, I am probably wrong.

Correct! KimmiKat was correct! It would take an average of 14 days for a ballon to go around the world in 14 days! Good Job!
You may proceed with the next question.

A) 8
B) 10
C) 12
D) 14
E) 20
F) 24
G) Forever...our local transit still uses horse and buggies!
