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

A train travels 69 kilometers in 3 hours, and then 51 kilometers in 2 hours. What is its average speed? Your Answer: Question 14
tamaranim1 [39]
Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Total distance = 69 km + 51 km = 120 km

Total time = 3 hrs + 2 hrs = 5 hrs

Average speed = (120 km) / (5 hrs) = 24 km/hr

If a star has no measurable parallax, what can you infer?
AnnZ [28]
The star is FARTHER from Earth than the limit of our ability to measure parallax.

The NEAREST star outside the solar system has a parallax angle of 0.742 SECOND. That's like 0.000206 of a degree ! ALL other stars have SMALLER parallax.

I have no idea how they measure angles like these ... especially when the change in direction takes six months to happen !

The work that is done when twice the load is lifted twice the distance is

four times as much

The net work performed by forces acting on an object equals the change in kinetic energy, according to the work-energy theorem.

when an item slows down, the net work applied to it decreases, its change in kinetic energy is negative, and its ultimate kinetic energy is less than its starting kinetic energy. When an item accelerates, positive net work is done on it. All the forces acting on an item must be taken into consideration when determining the net work. You will obtain an incorrect result if you exclude any forces that affect an item or if you add any forces that do not affect it.

Hence The work that is done when twice the load is lifted twice the distance is four times as much
