How many miles can a gas engine car go before refueling? _______An electric car?_____ A hybrid car?______

Answer
it depends on the design.
the larger the gas tank or batteries the farther it will go,
some tractor trailer trucks can go 3000 miles without a refill.
most gas cars are 200 to 300 miles
most electrics are 20 to 500 miles
hybrid car, no clue. but there is only about 5 on the market right now, should be possible to look up.

How far can a electric car go...?

Is a electric hybrid car good for roadtrips? Also when do you think we cam finally stop relying on gas and start using a better source of clean sources that don't effect the earth?

Answer
They can go a couple of miles for every kilowatt hour of energy the batteries hold. I is practical for a car with a LiFePo battery pack to have a 100 mile range. That gives you the best balance of range, efficiency and performance. With lead acid batteries, 40 miles gives you the best balance. The Tesla Roadster has some more expensive batteries (somewhat ahead of it's time), and it has a good balance with a 200 mile range.

They are not good for road trips unless you bring some kind of generator along with you, temporarily making your electric car into a series hybrid.

Batteries will replace gas when it's obvious to most people that they are better and more convenient. This will happen when charge time is cut down by about 75% and price comes down on those batteries with the energy density of the Tesla's batteries, probably within a few decades.

During an earthquake.
Stay calm if you are indoors, stay out if you are out of buildings. Many injuries occur as people enter or leave the buildings.
If you are indoors , stand against the a wall near the center of the building, or get under a sturdy table keep some cushion on your head, Stay away from windows and outside doors, if you are in a high rise building stand against a support column.
If you are in outdoor stay in the open place , keep away from over head electric wires. and bridges. If you are in car just stop it where there is know over bridge or over head electric lines and stay in side the car until the shaking stops.
Donât use open flames, if you are in a moving vehicle stop away from over bridges and stay inside the vehicle still earthquake stops.

After an earthquake.

Check electric and gas connection,
Turn on your radio or T.V for emergency instructions, reduce the use of phone lines it may be required for conveying some important messages.
Stay out of damaged buildings,
Wear chapels and gloves to protect against shattered glass and debris.

Stay away from beaches and water front areas where Tsunami could strike, even long after the shaking has stopped.
Have one earthquake alarm fixed in your house.
