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

ing with his outstretched arms. During the stopping process, his center of mass moves 30 cm toward the railing. (a) What is the change in the kinetic energy of his center of mass during this process? (b) What average force must he exert on the railing?

Answer:

(a). The change in the kinetic energy of his center of mass during this process is -495 J.

(b). The average force is 1650 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 110 kg

Speed = 3.0 m/s

Distance = 30 cm

(a). We need to calculate the change in the kinetic energy of his center of mass during this process

Using formula of kinetic energy

\Delta K.E=K.E_{2}-K.E_{1}

\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2

Put the value into the formula

\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times110\times0^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times110\times(3.0)^2

\Delta K.E=-495\ J

(b). We need to calculate the average force must he exert on the railing

Using work energy theorem

W=\Delta K.E

Fd=\Delta K.E

F=\dfrac{\Delta K.E}{d}

Put the value into the formula

F=\dfrac{-495}{30\times10^{-2}}

F=-1650\ N

The average force is 1650 N.

Hence, (a). The change in the kinetic energy of his center of mass during this process is -495 J.

(b). The average force is 1650 N.

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

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

    \Delta KE = \dfrac{1}{2}m(0)^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}\times 110 \times 3^2

    \Delta KE = - 495\ J

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.

Alecsey [184]
If you've ever mixed water and oil together,you've probably noticed that the oil rises to the top and the water stays at the bottom-- no matter how much you try to shake them. This is because oil is less dense than water, making it float to the top. The molecules in oil are larger than those in water, so they don't pack as tightly together as they do in water. In a mixture of oil and vinegar, the<span> </span>oil <span>floats on the </span>vinegar/<span>water mixture, while the solids sink to the bottom. So, if one material floats over another, the material on top is less dense.

Which of the following is a surface phenomenon A evaporation B boiling C melting D freezing​
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

A. evaporation

Explanation:

Evaporation is a surface phenomenon as the molecules of the surface gets sufficient energy to overcome the force of attraction which will help in converting to the vapor phase.

A 2 kg rubber ball is thrown at a wall horizontally at 3 m/s, and bounces back the way it came at an equal speed. A 2 kg clay ba
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

THE RUBBER BALL

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The mass of the rubber ball is m_r   =  2 \ kg

      The  initial  speed of the rubber ball is  u =  3 \ m/s

      The final speed at which it bounces bank v  - 3 \ m/s

      The mass of the clay ball  is  m_c =  2  \ kg

       The  initial  speed of the clay  ball is u = 3 \ m/s

       The final speed of the clay ball is  v = 0 \  m/s

Generally Impulse is mathematically represented as

       I  =  \Delta p

where \Delta  p is the change in the linear momentum so  

       I  =  m(v-u)

For the rubber  is  

        I_r  =  2(-3 -3)

       I_r  = -12\ kg \cdot  m/s

=>     |I_r|  = 12\ kg \cdot  m/s

For the clay ball

       I_c  =  2(0-3)

        I_c =  -6 \ kg\cdot \ m/s

=>    | I_c| =  6 \ kg\cdot \ m/s

So from the above calculation the ball with the a higher magnitude of impulse is the rubber ball
