A 91.0-kg hockey player is skating on ice at 5.50 m/s. another hockey player of equal mass, moving at 8.1 m/s in the
1 answer:
The momentum before the collision velocity after the collision will be 1237.6 kg m/s² and 6.8 m/sec.
<h3>What is the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>According to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the body before the collision is always equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.
The given data in the problem is;
(m₁) is the mass of hockey player 1= 91.0-kg
(m₂) is the mass of hockey player 2= 91.0-kg
(u₁) is the velocity before collision of hockey player 1 = 5.50 m/s.
(u₂) is the velocity before the collision of hockey player 2=?
a)
Momentum before the collision;
Momentum before the collision = 1237.6 kg m/s².
b)
The velocity of the two hockey players after the collision from the law of conservation of the momentum as:
Momentum before collision = Momentum after the collision
1237.6 kg m/s² = (m₁+m₂)V
1237.6 kg m/s² =(2 ×91.0-kg )V
V=6.8 m/sec.
Hence, momentum before the collision velocity after the collision will be 1237.6 kg m/s² and 6.8 m/sec.

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Torque as a function of the Force in proportion to the radius to which it is applied. In turn, we will use the concepts of energy expressed as Work, and which is described as the Torque's rate of change in proportion to angular displacement:
Where,
F = Force
r = Radius
Replacing we have that,
The moment of inertia is given by 2.5kg of the weight in hand by the distance squared to the joint of the body of 24 cm, therefore
Finally, angular acceleration is a result of the expression of torque by inertia, therefore
PART B)
The work done is equivalent to the torque applied by the distance traveled by 60 °° in radians , therefore
