You are playing hockey with friends on a very large frozen pond. The hockey puck is at your feet motionless. You take a slap-sho

t with your hockey stick and the hockey puck goes zooming off at a high rate of speed sliding along the ice. The hockey puck eventually comes to a stop because:
a. There is no net forward force on the puck and so it will eventually slow down.
b. Friction between the puck and the ice will do enough negative work on the puck to equal the positive work done by you on the puck.
c. Friction between the puck and the ice will do more negative work on the puck than you did positive work on the puck.
d. Friction between the puck and the ice will do less negative work on the puck than you did positive work on the puck.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter b. Friction between the puck and the ice will do enough negative work on the puck to  equal the positive work done by you on the puck.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's First Law of Motion, the rocky puck would keep sliding on the ice forever. However, due to the friction acts on the puck, it will slow down and eventually stopping.

Garrick rubs an inflated balloon against his hair. He then touches the balloon against a non-conducting wall.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Figure A

Explanation:

At first, the inflated balloon is rubbed against the hair.

In this situation, the balloon is charged by friction: because of the friction between the surface of the balllon and the hair, electrons are transferred from the hair to the surface of the balloon.

As a result, when the balloon is detached from the hair, it will have an excess of negative charge (due to the acquired electrons).

Then, the balloon is placed in contact with the non-conducting wall.

The non-conducting wall is initially neutral (equal number of positive and negative charges).

Because the wall is made of a non-conducting material (=isolant), the charges cannot move easily through it. Therefore, even though the charges on the wall feel a force due to the presence of the electrons in the balloon, they will not redistribute along the wall.

Therefore, the charges on the wall will remain equally distributed, as shown in figure A.
