Answer:

Interneurons

Explanation:

An interneuron or integrative neuron is a central nervous system neuron, usually small and short axon, that interconnects with other neurons; but never with sensory receptors or muscle fibers, allowing more complex functions.

The interneuron, also called the association neuron, has the function of analyzing sensory information and storing part of it. It also acts on reflex acts, transforming a stimulus in response at the level of the spinal cord. They are located between sensory and motor neurons and are located in the upper nerve centers. Interneurons are multipolar neurons, which connect afferent neurons with efferent neurons in the neuronal or nerve tracts. In other words, they function as a communicational bridge, intercommunicating sensory neurons with motor neurons. Like motor cells, interneurons are only found in the central nervous system. In contrast to the peripheral nervous system, all CNS neurons appear to be interneurons, as they are in communication with many other neurons. However, the term "interneuron" refers to neurons that have axon and dendritic extensions of local extension and not distant, that is, short.

Answer:

The resultant velocity is 169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis or the east-west line.

Explanation:

Considering west direction along negative x-axis and north direction along positive y-axis

Given:

The car travels at a speed of 120 km/h in the west direction.

The car then travels at the same speed in the north direction.

Now, considering the given directions, the velocities are given as:

Velocity in west direction is, $\overrightarrow{v_1}=-120\ \vec{i}$

Velocity in north direction is, $\overrightarrow{v_2}=120\ \vec{j}$

Now, since $v_1\ and\ v_2$ are perpendicular to each other, their resultant magnitude is given as:

$|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{|\overrightarrow{v_1}|^2+|\overrightarrow{v_2}|^2}$

Plug in the given values and solve for the magnitude of the resultant.This gives,

$|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{(120)^2+(120)^2}\\\\|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=120\sqrt{2} = 169.71\ km/h$

Let the angle made by the resultant be 'x' degree with the east-west line or the x-axis.

So, the direction is given as:

$x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{|v_2|}{|v_1|})\\\\x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{120}{-120})=\tan^{-1}(-1)=-45\ deg(clockwise\ angle\ with\ the\ x-axis)$

Therefore, the resultant velocity is 169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis or the east-west line.

Answer:

$v_a=0.8176 m/s$

$\Delta K=0.07969 J - 0.0849 J = -0.00521 J$

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of both pucks won't be changed regardless of their interaction if no external forces are acting on the system.

Being $m_a$ and $m_b$ the masses of pucks a and b respectively, the initial momentum of the system is
