Two hockey pucks, labeled A and B, are initially at rest on a smooth ice surface and are separated by a distance of 18.0 m . Sim

ultaneously, each puck is given a quick push, and they begin to slide directly toward each other. Puck A moves with a speed of 3.90 m/s , and puck B moves with a speed of 4.30 m/s . What is the distance covered by puck A by the time the two pucks collide

Answer:

The distance covered by puck A before collision is  z = 8.56 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The label on the two hockey pucks is  A and  B

    The distance between the  two hockey pucks is D   18.0 m

     The speed of puck A is  v_A =  3.90 \ m/s

        The speed of puck B is  v_B  =  4.30 \ m/s

The distance covered by puck A is mathematically represented as

     z =  v_A * t

  =>  t  =  \frac{z}{v_A}

 The distance covered by puck B  is  mathematically represented as

      18 - z =  v_B  * t

=>   t  = \frac{18 - z}{v_B}

Since the time take before collision is the same

        \frac{18 - z}{V_B}  =  \frac{z}{v_A}

substituting values

          \frac{18 -z }{4.3}  = \frac{z}{3.90}

=>      70.2 - 3.90 z   = 4.3 z

=>       z = 8.56 \ m

When does the most significant drop in physical activity typically occur in people's lives?
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Later high school years and freshman year of college

Explanation:

The transition from high school to college is an important developmental milestone that holds the potential for personal growth and behavioral change.  A cohort of 2,025 students was recruited during the summer before they matriculated into college and completed Internet-based surveys about their participation in a variety of behavioral risks during the last three months of high school and throughout the first year of college. Alcohol use, marijuana use, and sex with multiple partners increased during the transition from high school to college, whereas driving after drinking, aggression, and property crimes decreased. Those from rural high schools and those who elected to live in private dormitories in college were at highest risk for heavy drinking and driving after drinking.

When fuel and air are compressed in the compression stroke, ...... a. each molecule of fuel is heated to its flash point b. each
alexira [117]

None of the choices is an appropriate response.

There's no such thing as the temperature of a molecule.  Temperature and
pressure are both outside-world manifestations of the energy the molecules
have.  But on the molecular level, what it is is the kinetic energy with which
they're all scurrying around.

When the fuel/air mixture is compressed during the compression stroke,
the temperature is raised to the flash point of the mixture.  The work done
during the compression pumps energy into the molecules, their kinetic
energy increases, and they begin scurrying around fast enough so that
when they collide, they're able to stick together, form a new molecule,
and release some of their kinetic energy in the form of heat.
