A hockey puck is hit on a frozen lake and starts moving with a speed of 13.60 m/s. Exactly 6.2 s later, its speed is 7.20 m/s. (
stellarik [79]

Answer:

-1.03 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity. The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s².

Mathematically, acceleration is expressed as

a = (v-u)/t ........................ Equation 1

Where a = acceleration, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t  = time.

Given: u = 13.60 m/s, v = 7.20 m/s t = 6.2 s.

Substituting into equation 2

a = (7.20-13.60)/6.2

a = -6.4/6.2

a = -1.03 m/s²

Note: a is negative because, the hockey puck is decelerating.

Hence the average acceleration = -1.03 m/s²

A bullet with a mass of 0.02 kg is fired horizontally into a block of wood hanging on a string. The bullet sricks in the wood an
djyliett [7]

Answer:

u= 20.09 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m = 0.02 kg

M= 2 kg

h= 0.2 m

Lets take initial speed of bullet = u m/s

The final speed of the system will be zero.

From energy conservation

1/2 m u²+ 0 = 0+ (m+M) g h

m u²=2 (m+M) g h

By putting the values

0.02 x u² = 2 (0.02+2) x 10 x 0.2       ( take g=10 m/s²)

u= 20.09 m/s

A mass is placed at the end of a spring. It has starting velocity of V & allowed to oscillate freely. If the mass has a star
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Equation for SHM can be written

V = w A cos w t        where w is the angular frequency and the velocity is a                                         maximum at t = 0

V1 = w1  A cos w1 t

V2 = w2 A cos w2 t

V2 / V1 = w2 / w1     since cos X t = 1 if t = zero

V2 / V1 = 2 pi f2 / (2 pi f1) = f2 / f1 = T1 / T2

If the velocity is twice as large the period will be 1/2 long

Does the refraction of light make a swimming pool seem deeper or shallower? explain your answer.
larisa [96]

The refraction of light makes a swimming pool seem <u>shallower</u>.

The swimming pool seems shallower because the rays of light coming from the bottom of the pool do not come with a straight path. The path of light is straight as long as it is in the water.

When lights come out of the water into the air it bents downwards. This bending is called refraction.

Refraction forms a virtual image of the pool and it seems shallower than it actually is to the observer. This only happens when light travels from one transparent medium into another having lower density.
