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>

What is the net force on a car moving in a straight line with a constant velocity
guapka [62]

Answer:

For example, when a car travels at a constant speed, the driving force from the engine is balanced by resistive forces such as air resistance and friction in the car's moving parts. The resultant force on the car is zero.

A quarterback throws a football toward a receiver with an initial speed of 20 m/s at an angle of 30∘ above the horizontal. At th
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

a) In order to catch the ball at the level at which it is thrown in the direction of motion.

b)Speed of the receiver will be 7.52m/s

Explanation:

Calculating range,R= Vo^2Sin2theta/g

R= (20^2×Sin(2×30)/9.8 = 35.35m

Let receiver be(R-20) = 35.35-20= 15.35m

The horizontal component of the ball is:

Vox= Vocostheta= 20× cos30°

Vox= 17.32m/s

Time taken to coverR=35.35m with 17.32m/s will be:

t=R/Vox= 35.35/17.32

t= 2.04seconds

b)Speed required to cover 15.35m at 2.04seconds

Vxreciever= d/t = 15.35/2.04 = 7.52m/s

Which of the following statements about insulating materials is correct?a.Insulators can be used to increase the amount of curre
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

a.Insulators can be used to increase the amount of current that can flow through a resistor without increasing its temperature.

Explanation:

A conductor has low resistance, while an insulator has much higher resistance. Devices called resistors control amounts of resistance into an electrical circuits. Electric charges inside an insulator are bound to the individual atoms or molecules, not being able to move inside the material.

When you turn up the resistance, the electric current flowing through the circuit is reduced

Ohm's law:

V = I * R

R = V/I

An Ohmic conductor would have a linear relationship between the current and the voltage. With non-Ohmic conductors, the relationship is not linear. Most metals are good conductors example silver, copper etc.
