In attempting to pass the puck to a teammate, a hockey player gives it an initial speed of 2.8 m/s. However, this speed is inade

quate to compensate for the kinetic friction between the puck and the ice. As a result, the puck travels only one-half the distance between the players before sliding to a halt. What minimum initial speed should the puck have been given so that it reached the teammate, assuming that the same force of kinetic friction acted on the puck everywhere between the two players?

Answer:

3.95979 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow as=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow as=\frac{0^2-2.8^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow as=-3.92

Here s=\frac{1}{2}s

\\\Rightarrow as=-7.84\ m/s^2

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{v^2-2as}\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{0^2-2\times -7.84}\\\Rightarrow u=3.95979\ m/s

Initial velocity of the puck should be 3.95979 m/s

How could you determine the instantaneous speed during a<br> trip?
Fiesta28 [93]
Look at your speedometer for say, a couple of seconds. Depends on whether or not you are moving on average at a constant speed (speedo won't change much) or whether you're in a polluting traffic jam/queue in which case the speedo will go up and down like a yo yo. to determine the speed, you'd probably need to plot the speed on the speedo against the times at which the speedo speeds were read from the speedo.

Which statement best describes perigee?
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

A. The closest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth

Explanation:

The perigee is defined as the closest point in the orbit of an object (such as a satellite) from the centre of the Earth. In this case, the Earth's satellite is the Moon, so the perigee is defined as the closest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth. so option A is the correct one.

Let's see instead the names of the other options:

B. The farthest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth  --> this point is called apogee

C. The closest point in Earth's orbit of the Sun  --> this point is called perihelion

D. The Sun's orbit that is closest to the Moon --> this point has no specific name

If an object accelerates from rest, what will its velocity be after 1.3 s if it has a constant acceleration of 9.1 m/s^2?
HACTEHA [7]

\text{Given that,}\\\\\text{Initial velocity,} ~v_0 = 0~ \text{m~s}^{-1}\\\\\text{Time,  t = 1.3~sec}\\\\\text{Acceleration, a = 9.1 m s}^{-2}\\\\\\\\\text{Velocity,}\\\\v = v_0  +at\\\\\implies v = 0 + 9.1 \times 1.3 = 11.83~~ \text{m~s}^{-1}
