We have to calculate the impulse of a hockey puck.
Imp = m * ( v 1 - v 2 ) = m * Δ v
v 1 = - 10 i m/s,
v 2 = ( 20 * cos 40° ) i + ( 20 * sin 40° ) j =
= ( 20 * 0.766 ) i + ( 20 * 0.64278 ) j = ( 15.32 i + 12.855 j ) m/s
Δ v = ( 15.32 i + 12.855 j ) - ( - 10 i ) =
= 15.32 i + 12.855 j + 10 i = 25.32 i + 12.855 j
| Δv | = √ ( 25.32² + 12.855²) = √806.35 = 28.4 m/s
Imp = 0.2 kg * 28.4 m/s = 5.68 N-s
Answer: D ) 5.68 N-s.
Retrograde. Planets seem to move forward and then backward sometimes. This is really because we pass them as we move in our orbit but astronomers wanted to try to describe the solar system with earth at the center so elaborate models were employed.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. Scientists would use a control sample that has no dna from bighead carp in edna surveillance in order to to verify that no dna has contaminated the gel. It would eliminate certain errors in the experiment.
