This is a polite question because it asks you a question.

Answer 1

The question you've provided is a problem-solving question that requires calculation. It's attempting to find a specific numerical answer (the speed of the hockey puck) based on the information given.

Among the responses you provided, the first response ("This is a bossy question because it gives you a command") would be the most fitting if you consider that the question implies a directive to carry out a calculation. However, it doesn't explicitly give a command like "calculate," which would make it more obviously "bossy."

In a broader sense, the question does lead to a calculation task but doesn’t necessarily categorize itself strictly as polite or bossy in conventional terms. Nevertheless, if I had to choose one of the provided responses, I would likely align more with the first response, as it entails following a directive to compute an answer.

Additionally, if you are asking about the nature of the question type, it could also be categorized as a "problem-solving" or "calculation-based" question.
