Two students walk in the same direction along a straight path, at a constant speed one at 0.90 m/s and the other at 1.90 m/s. a.

Assuming that they start at the same point and the same time, how much sooner does the faster student arrive at a destination 780 m away? b. How far would the students have to walk so that the faster student arrives 5.50 min before the slower student?

Answer: a) 456.66 s ; b) 564.3 m

Explanation: The time spend to cover any distance a constant velocity is given by:

v= distance/time so t=distance/v

The slower student time is: t=780m/0.9 m/s= 866.66 s

For the faster students t=780 m/1,9 m/s= 410.52 s

Therefore the time difference is 866.66-410.52= 456.14 s

In order to calculate the distance that faster student should  walk

to arrive 5,5 m before that slower student, we consider the follow expressions:

distance =vslower*time1

distance= vfaster*time 2

The time difference is 5.5 m that is equal to 330 s

replacing in the above expression we have

time 1= 627 s

time2 = 297 s

The distance traveled is 564,3 m

Plugging in 330 seconds from time 1 and time 2 into the distance equations would give you 627 and 297 meters not seconds.. unless I’m misunderstanding something?

Air pollution caused by the reaction of nitrogen compounds and other pollutants in the presence of sunlight is
ehidna [41]

Nitrogen oxides play a critical role in photochemical smog. They give the smog its yellowish-brown hue. Indoor residential appliances like gas stoves and gas or wood heaters can be significant emitters of nitrogen oxides in poorly ventilated environments.

  • Nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN), and chemical compounds with the -CHO group are the main harmful elements of photochemical smog (aldehydes). If present in high enough amounts, PAN and aldehydes can harm plants and irritate the eyes.
  • The greatest sources of emissions are power plants, heavy construction equipment driven by diesel, other moveable engines, and industrial boilers. Cars, trucks, and buses are next in line.

Therefore , on conclusion i.e. two gases with molecules consisting of nitrogen and oxygen atoms are nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂). These nitrogen oxides play a part in the development of smog and acid rain, adding to the issue of air pollution.
