Answer:
They will be 140 miles apart 8 hours after the first boy started the trip or 6 hours after the second boy started the trip.
Explanation:
x = the time that the first boy travels at 14 mph
x - 2 = the time the second boy travels at 14 mph
140 the distance between them
Since one travels north and the other east (their roads are perpendicular) the distance between them can be calculated using Pythagorean Theorem
(14*x)^2 + ((x-2)*14)^2 = 140^2
the solutions of the quadratic equation are
x1 = - 6 is not the solution since x > 0
x2 = 8 h is the solution
Answer: One thing magnetism and electricity have in common is that they are related.
Explanation: Flowing electrons produce a magnetic field, and spinning magnets cause an electric current to flow.
Answer:
Convection currents are the result of different heating. Lighter material (warm) rises while heavier (cold) material sinks. This movement of the materials is what causes convection currents! (BTW, it happens in water, in the atmosphere, and in the mantle of Earth!

Answer:
The ball stops instantaneously at the topmost point of the motion.
Explanation:
Assume we have thrown a ball up in the air. For that we have given a force on the ball and it acquires an initial velocity in the upward direction.
The forces that resist the motion of the ball in the upward direction are the force of gravity and air resistance. The ball will instantaneously come to rest when the velocity of the ball reduces to zero.
The two forces acting in the downward direction reduces its speed continuously and it becomes zero at the topmost point.
Answer:
potential energy increases.
Explanation:
The potential energy between the two charged particles is given by
U = k Q q / r
If they are very far apart then r tends to infinity and the potential energy is zero.
If they come closer then the potential energy between the two charged particles increases.
Thus, the potential energy increases.
