Answer:

I'm not sure..but please refer to your teacher later.

Answer: Based on Newton's First law of motion (where inertia is involved), smooth ice increases the forceused to accelerate the hockey puck.

Explanation;

  • smooth ice reduces the resistances between the surface of the figure skates and the ice itself.
  • based on inertia theory ; the heavier the weight, the larger the inertia.. which explains it takes alot of force to move a heavier object than the lighter ones.. it also hard to *stop* the motion of heavier objects than the lighter ones.
  • now let's look at the design of the player shoe itself, they have a sharp blade at the bottom of the figure stakes.. which takes us to the law of the force.. the smaller the surface area, the more forces acting on it. So, players force (weight, F= mg) acts on the tip of the blade and on the ice
  • high inertia (run fast) and high force (attack opponent and pass puck) enables them to perform well in playing hockey
  • Thus if there's no resistance and the inertia of the player is high then they could run and pass the puck quickly

klemol [59]

Answer:

The particle of a gas are very far apart from each other.

Explanation:

The states of matter comprises of solid, liquid and gas. The molecules of gas are free because they are not tightly held together by molecular force. The force between the molecules has been broken, hence the particles possesses the freedom to move about thereby possessing high kinetic energy (energy possessed by a body due to its motion). Since this molecules can easily move freely, they are always far apart from each other under ordinary temperature and pressure.
