Physics

Answer:

Concrete and Asphalt are much rougher surfaces and have a higher coefficient of friction because they generate more resistance to an object in motion. Ice has less friction and less energy is lost to heat, causing the puck to slide much further.

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.

Weight of heart of a cow

Computation:

Note: It is not given that in the mammals the weight of heart is approximately 0.5% of total body weight

Weight of heart of a cow = [Weight of cow][0.5%]

Weight of cow = [1518][0.5%]

Weight of cow = 7.59 lbs
