When hockey players push the puck along the ice it slides causing heat which melts the ice causing the friction against the ice to be less.
Y - yo = Vo*t - g * (t^2) / 2
Vo = - 9.0 m/s
t = 0.50 s
=> y - yo = -9.0 m/s * 0.5 s - 9.8 m/s^2 * (0.5s)^2 / 2 = - 4.5m - 1.225m = - 5.725 m.
Answer: option c) - 5.7
The equation for force is F=ma. Because we have the value of mass (0.42 kg) and the acceleration (14.8 m/s^2), simply plug them into the equation for force to get
The answer is 6.22 N because newtons are the unit used to measure force.
2 times 10 to the power of 5 is your answer.
