A 70.0 kg ice hockey goalie, originally at rest, has a 0.110 kg hockey puck slapped at him at a velocity of 31.5 m/s. Suppose th

NISA [10]

Answer

given,

mass of the goalie(m₁) = 70 kg

mass of the puck (m₂)= 0.11 kg

velocity of the puck = 31.5 m/s

elastic collision

$v_1=\dfrac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}v_1+\dfrac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}v_2$

$v_{pf}=\dfrac{0.11-70}{0.11+70}31.5+\dfrac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}\times (0)$

$v_{pf}=-31.4\ m/s$

$v'_2 = \dfrac{2m_1v_1}{m_1+m_2}-\dfrac{(m_2-m_1)v_2}{m_2+m_1}$

$v_{gf} = \dfrac{2\times 0.11\times 31.5}{0.11+70}-\dfrac{(0.11-70)\times 0}{m_1+m_2}$

$v_{gf} = \dfrac{2\times 0.11\times 31.5}{0.11+70}$

$v_{gf} = 0.0988\ m/s$
