Consider a situation where you are playing air hockey with a friend. The table shoots small streams of air upward to keep the pu
ck afloat and to minimize friction. When you barely tap the puck forward, it Question 4 options:
continues to accelerate.
moves with a constant speed until hitting the other end.
moves backward with an equal and opposite velocity.
slows and stops.
When we hit the puck from tap the puck will move forward.
This is due to the impulse provided by us at the time of hit. Due to this impulse the puck will move forward and start moving in some direction.
As soon as puck move forward the force on it is zero as the weight of the puck is counterbalanced by the air stream force and there is no other force on it so puck will continue its motion till it will hit at some other point.
So here the motion of the puck will be uniform motion till it will collide with some other points.
So here the correct option will be given as
<em>moves with a constant speed until hitting the other end.</em>
C. The force is a constant change, because her position on the Ferris wheel will constantly change. I believe this is the answer, but use sources to double check. I might use different vocab. then your teachers.
