A 110 kg ice hockey player skates at 3.0 m/s toward a railing at the edge of the ice and then stops himself by grasping the rail
velikii [3]

Answer:

Δ KE = -495 J

Explanation:

given,

mass of the ice hockey player = 110 Kg

initial speed = 3 m/s

final speed  = 0 m/s

distance, d = 0.3 m

change in kinetic energy

\Delta K E = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2

\Delta K E = \dfrac{1}{2}mv(0)^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}\times 110\times 3^2

    Δ KE = -495 J

Hence, the change in kinetic energy is equal to Δ KE = -495 J

A steel ball and a wooden ball of the same diameter are released together from the top of a tower. In the absence of air resista
ella [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The steel ball and the wooden ball do not have the same force acting on them because their masses are different. But, they have the same acceleration which is the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s².

Using the equation of motion under freefall, s = ut +1/2gt². Since u = 0,

s = 1/2gt² ⇒ t = √(2s/g)

Since. s = height is the same for both objects, they land at the same time neglecting air resistance.

melisa1 [442]
Weight can be explained as the force with which the gravity pulls an object. Your weight will not be the same in all planets. In moon, you will weigh far lesser than how much you weigh on the earth. However, in earth and in the moon, your mass will remain the same.

A motorboat traveling on a straight course slows
never [62]

Answer:

2.572 m/s²

Explanation:

Convert the given initial velocity and final velocity rates to m/s:

  • 65 km/h → 18.0556 m/s
  • 35 km/h → 9.72222 m/s

The motorboat's displacement is 45 m during this time.

We are trying to find the acceleration of the boat.

We have the variables v₀, v, a, and Δx. Find the constant acceleration equation that contains all four of these variables.

  • v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute the known values into the equation.

  • (9.72222)² = (18.0556)² + 2a(45)
  • 94.52156173 = 326.0046914 + 90a
  • -231.4831296 = 90a
  • a = -2.572

The magnitude of the boat's acceleration is |-2.572| = 2.572 m/s².
