Good life preservers have several things in common. These include one or more ways to inflate themselves, good comfort and signal-making ability (either whistle, high visibility markings, or mirror or a combination of two or more signaling methods.

You and a pair of life preservers are floating down a swift river you wish to get to either of the life preservers for safety 1 is 3 meters upstream and 1 3 meters downstream which can you get to fast?

If each life preserver is 3 meters on either side, up and down, then you will reach either life preserver with the equal amount of time. As both you and the two life preservers are travelling downstream at equal speed. If you swim to the life preserver upstream you are effectively slowing yourself down and allowing the life preserver upstream to catch up to you. On the other hand, if you swim to the life preserver downstream you are effectively speeding yourself up to catch up to the life preserver downstream. As the frame of reference is the movement of the river, your distance to either life preserver is the same and hence can be reached with the equal amount of time. Answered by Ask4MyTutor

How did lifesaver get their shape?

Clarence Crane was a chocolate maker and chocolate was hard to sell in the summer months so he decided to try to make a mint to boost his summertime sales. In 1912 he sold "Crane's Peppermint Life Savers" In 1913 he sold the rights to his candy to Edward Noble for 2,900.00. The reason he put the hole in the center was life preservers were just starting to be used on ships to toss to passengers who had fallen overboard. Crane also saw a pill making machine at a druggist that was operated by hand and made round flat pills. Putting together "life preservers" with the pill making machine adding the hole made his mints "life preservers". By 2004 the candy was owned by Kraft foods and made into many flavors.
