Answer 1

No. Of times bee beats in 1 sec=250
Average time =?
Frst find how many times bee beats in 1 min.
No. Of times bee beats in 1 min= 250*60=15000
Average time= 15000/ 250
Average time=60 times

Answer 2

The average time for a single beat of bee’s wing is 0.004 seconds.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of times bee beats its wings each second=250 times

To Find:

average time for a single beat of a bee's wing =?

Solution:

Time required for single beat = (1 second)/(number of beats in 1 second)

Substituting the values,

`Time required for single beat = (1)/(250)`

Time required for single beat= 0.004

Hence, the average time for a single beat of bee’s wing is 0.004 seconds.
