A hockey puck with a mass of 0.16 kg travels at a velocity of 40 m/s toward a goalkeeper. The goalkeeper has a mass of 120 kg an

d is at rest. Assuming a closed system, find the total momentum of the goalkeeper and puck after the puck is caught by the goalkeeper. In 3-4 sentences, identify the object with the greater momentum after the puck is caught and explain your reasoning.

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass of a body and its velocity.

Given the mass of the puck m1 = 0.16kg

velocity of the puck v1 = 40m/s

Given the mass of the goalkeeper m2 = 120kg

velocity of the goalkeeper v2= 0m/s (goal keeper at rest)

The total momentum of the goalkeeper and puck after the puck is caught by the goalkeeper is expressed as:

m1v1 + m2v2 (their momentum will be added since they collide)

= 0.16(40) + 120(0)

= 0.16(40) + 0

= 6.4kgm/s

Let us calculate their common velocity using the conservation of momentum formula;

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

6.4 = (0.16+120)v

6.4 = 120.16v

v = 6.4/120.16

v = 0.053m/s

Hence after collision, both objects move at a velocity of 0.053m/s

Momentum of the puck after collision = m1v

Momentum of the puck after collision = 0.16*0.053m/s

Momentum of the puck after collision = 0.0085kgm/s

Momentum of the keeper after collision = m2v

Momentum of the keeper after collision = 120*0.053m/s

Momentum of the keeper after collision = 6.36kgm/s

From the calculation above, it can be seen that the keeper has the greater momentum after the puck was caught since the momentum of the keeper after collision is greater than that of the puck

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

18 ohms

Explanation:

V = I(R1 + R2)

5V = (0.167A)(12 ohms + R2)

Solving for R2

R2 = 18 ohms

What is the kinetic energy of a 74.0 kg skydiver falling at a terminal velocity of 52.0m/s?
skad [1K]

Answer:

100,048

Explanation:

K.E = 1/2 m (v)^2

K.E = 1^/2 * 74 * (52)^2

K.E = 100,048J =100.048kJ

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

it would take rod B twice as much time

Explanation:

it would take rod B twice as much time as it is twice as thick and twice as long. Due to this reason it would take the electric charge not only more time but even more voltage to travel through the rod

What property is used to distinguish the layers of the atmosphere?
Margarita [4]
There are many porperties. You can use Altitude, Temperature, Pressure and Density, but the best one is temperature. The resaon for that is that based on the temperature changes then the athmosphere can be broken into four major layers. Remember that the layers are the following: <span>the </span>troposphere,the<span> </span>stratosphere, <span>the </span>mesosphere<span>, and the</span>thermosphere<span>.</span>
