Two hockey pucks, labeled A and B, are initially at rest on a smooth ice surface and are separated by a distance of 18.0 m. Simu

ltaneously, each puck is given a quick push, and they begin to slide directly toward each other. Puck A moves with a speed of 1.30 m/s, and puck B moves with a speed of 1.70 m/s. What is the distance that puck A covers prior to the collision?

Answer: pick A moves 10.2 metre

Explanation: since they were given a quick push simultaneously the product of their distance moved and velocity would be equal.

Let the distance moved by puck B x then that of puck A would be 18-x.

So therefore we have that,

1.3*(18-x) = 1.7*x

23.4 - 1.3x = 1.7x

23.4=3x

Making x subject of formula we have

x = 23.4/3 = 7.8m

But the distance moved by puck A is 18-x. So therefore,

18-7.8=10.2meter

If the kinetic energy of the 40kg box is 784 J, what is the velocity before it strikes the ground?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

784=\frac{1}{2}(40)v^2

784=20v^2

39.2=v^2

v=6.26m/s

which of these is an example of a biotic factor that could affect the size of a population A-climate b-disease c-a natural disas
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Hey there!

Biotic factors are living organisms. This includes plants, animals, and bacteria. Climate, water, and natural disasters are abiotic factors, which means they are nonliving factors that affect the environment. Disease is caused by bacteria, which is a biotic factor.

Therefore, your answer is B) Disease.

Hope this helps!

Which of the following statements is correct?
Mumz [18]

Answer: c. Generally, metals are ductile.

Explanation:

From the options given in the question, the correct statement is that"Generally, metals are ductile.

Ductility of a metal simply means that a metal can be plastically deform before it is then fractured. It implies that metals can be drawn to thin wires. The only exception we have in this case is mercury.

28. Sound can be heard around a corner because of
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Diffraction of sound wavelengths.

Explanation:

Diffraction-A wave is able to bend around a corner due to the effects of diffraction. sound aves are capable of bending around corners in the same magnitude as it's wavelength making it possible to hear sounds around corners.

Complete question:

A 200 g load attached to a horizontal spring moves in simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.410 s. The total mechanical energy of the spring–load system is 2.00 J. Find

(a) the force constant of the spring and (b) the amplitude of the motion.

Answer:

(a) the force constant of the spring = 47 N/m

(b) the amplitude of the motion = 0.292 m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the spring, m = 200g = 0.2 kg

period of oscillation, T = 0.410 s

total mechanical energy of the spring, E = 2 J

The angular speed is calculated as follows;

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T} \\\\\omega = \frac{2\pi}{0.41} \\\\\omega = 15.33 \ rad/s

(a) the force constant of the spring

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\\\omega^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\\\k = m \omega^2\\\\k = (0.2)(15.33)^2\\\\k = 47 \ N/m

(b) the amplitude of the motion

E = ¹/₂kA²

2E = kA²

A² = 2E/k

A = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{k} } \\\\A = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 2}{47} }\\\\A = 0.292 \ m
