Answer:
The sun heats the earth through radiation. Since there is no medium (like the gas in our atmosphere) in space, radiation is the primary way that heat travels in space. When the heat reaches the earth it warms the molecules of the atmosphere, and they warm other molecules and so on.
Answer
given,
mass of ice hockey player = 110 Kg
initial speed of the skate = 3 m/s
final speed of the skate = 0 m/s
distance of the center of mass, m = 30 cm = 0.3 m
a) Change in kinetic energy



b) Average force must he exerted on the railing
using work energy theorem
W = Δ KE
F .d = -495
F x 0.3 = -495
F = -1650 N
the average force exerted on the railing is equal to 1650 N.
Human error (average human reaction time is .2 seconds)
Dropping it on a hard surface.
