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.

How does reflection differ from refraction and diffraction?
shtirl [24]

Answer: Reflection is the only process in which the wave does not continue moving forward.

Explanation:

Reflection is a process in which the direction of the wave changes when it is exposed to a bounce off barrier. Refraction can be defined as the change in the direction of the wave when the wave passes through one medium to another. Diffraction is a process in which the direction of the wave changes when the wave passes through a particular opening near the barrier.

A 5 kgkg sphere having a charge of ++ 8 μCμC is placed on a scale, which measures its weight in newtons. A second sphere having
Mrac [35]

Answer:

 F_Balance = 46.6 N    ,m' = 4,755 kg

Explanation:

In this exercise, when the sphere is placed on the balance, it indicates the weight of the sphere, when another sphere of opposite charge is placed, they are attracted so that the balance reading decreases, resulting in

          ∑ F = 0

          Fe –W + F_Balance = 0

         F_Balance = - Fe + W

           

The electric force is given by Coulomb's law

          Fe = k q₁ q₂ / r₂

The weight is

          W = mg

Let's replace

           F_Balance = mg - k q₁q₂ / r₂

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

          q₁ = + 8 μC = +8 10⁻⁶ C

          q₂ = - 3 μC = - 3 10⁻⁶ C

          r = 0.3 m = 0.3 m

Let's calculate

         F_Balance = 5 9.8 - 8.99 10⁹  8 10⁻⁶ 3 10⁻⁶ / (0.3)²

         F_Balance = 49 - 2,397

         F_Balance = 46.6 N

This is the balance reading, if it is calibrated in kg, it must be divided by the value of the gravity acceleration.

Mass reading is

          m' = F_Balance / g

          m' = 46.6 /9.8

          m' = 4,755 kg

1.) Waves transfer ______ without moving ______
kondor19780726 [428]
I believe it goes as the following::

1) Waves transfer energy without moving particles

2) The two types of waves are longitudinal and transverse waves OR The two types of waves are mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Both are applicable and should be correct!
