Answer:

-1.03 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity. The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s².

Mathematically, acceleration is expressed as

a = (v-u)/t ........................ Equation 1

Where a = acceleration, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t  = time.

Given: u = 13.60 m/s, v = 7.20 m/s t = 6.2 s.

Substituting into equation 2

a = (7.20-13.60)/6.2

a = -6.4/6.2

a = -1.03 m/s²

Note: a is negative because, the hockey puck is decelerating.

Hence the average acceleration = -1.03 m/s²

Levart [38]

She puts each block of ice in the same 3000 mL beaker, each with 2000 mL of water at room temperature, and measures the temperature before and after adding ice. Therefore, small blocks of ice will have the same temperature.

Joanna puts two blocks of ice (one larger than the other) into separate cups and fills each with water. She compares the final water temperature of the two cups after each block of ice melts.

Put each block of ice in the same 3000 mL beaker, each at room temperature, put 2000 mL of water in it, and measure the temperature before and after adding ice. This way you keep the water at the same temperature in the beginning, then the temperature changes after you add the ice, giving you a better idea of ​​the final temperature reading.

man stands on a platform that is rotating (without friction) with an angular speed of 1.2 rev/s; his arms are outstretched and h
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

w₂ = 22.6 rad/s

Explanation:

This exercise the system is formed by platform, man and bricks; For this system, when the bricks are released, the forces are internal, so the kinetic moment is conserved.

Let's write the moment two moments

initial instant. Before releasing bricks

       L₀ = I₁ w₁

final moment. After releasing the bricks

       L_{f} = I₂W₂

       L₀ = L_{f}

       I₁ w₁ = I₂ w₂

       w₂ = I₁ / I₂ w₁

let's reduce the data to the SI system

     w₁ = 1.2 rev / s (2π rad / 1rev) = 7.54 rad / s

 

 let's calculate

       w₂ = 6.0/2.0   7.54

       w₂ = 22.6 rad/s

When touched by a plastic straw, the metal sphere will do what?
bearhunter [10]
I believe that if you touch a metal sphere with a plastic straw, the straw would not have enough strength to push it. So in that case, the metal sphere will not move and will stay in one place.

Define the types of friction and give FOUR examples of each
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Static Friction - acts on objects when they are resting on a surface

Sliding Friction -  friction that acts on objects when they are sliding over a surface

Rolling Friction - friction that acts on objects when they are rolling over a surface

Fluid Friction - friction that acts on objects that are moving through a fluid

Explanation:

Examples of static include papers on a tabletop, towel hanging on a rack, bookmark in a book , car parked on a hill.

Example of sliding include sledding, pushing an object across a surface, rubbing one's hands together, a car sliding on ice.

Examples of rolling include truck tires, ball bearings, bike wheels, and car tires.

Examples of fluid include water pushing against a swimmer's body as they move through it , the movement of your coffee as you stir it with a spoon,  sucking water through a straw, submarine moving through water.
