Even if there were some friction on the ice, it is still possible to use conservation of momentum to solve this problem, but you
hjlf

The problem referred to in this question is missing and it is;

Two hockey pucks of identical mass are on a flat, horizontal ice hockey rink. The red puck is motionless; the blue puck is moving at 2.5 m/s to the left. It collides with the motionless red puck. The pucks have a mass of 15 g. After the collision, the red puck is moving at 2.5 m/s, to the left. What is the final velocity of the blue puck?

Answer:

The condition is that p_f - p_i which is the change in momentum will not be equal to zero but equal to the impulse (Ft).

Explanation:

In the problem described, by inspection, we can say that since there is no friction, we have a closed system and thus momentum is conserved.

Since momentum is conserved, we can say that;

Initial momentum(p_i) = final momentum(p_f)

Now, in this question we are told that some friction wants to be introduced on the ice and it's possible to still use conservation of momentum.

From impulse - momentum theory, we know that;

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse is zero when no force is acting on the ice and we have; 0 = p_f - p_i

This will yield initial momentum = final momentum.

Now, since a force is applied, we know that impulse is; J = F × t

Thus;

Ft = p_f - p_i

Where F is the force due to friction.

Thus, the condition is that p_f - p_i will not be equal to zero

Nady [450]
Based on your problem where as ask for the distance of the ball drop between the pitchers mound and the home plate and with a given of the speed of ball is 43m/s and the homeplates is 60.6ft away. Based on my step by step procedure and also considering the value of gravity by 9.8m/s^2 i came up with the distance of 144m away

Compare two processes we use to measure the age of Earth and its parts.
yan [13]

Answer:

Generally speaking, scientists have developed four different methods of determining the age of the earth. By using these methods, or a combination of them, the age of geological formations created by past events and even the fossilized bones of prehistoric animals can be determined.

Based on the research done by scientists, the Geologic Column, a graph that illustrates earth age, was developed. The Column, with its names for the epochs and eras of time, illustrates what scientists think was taking place in earth history. A small version of the Geologic Column is pictured at the right.

A parallel-plate capacitor with plates of area 360 cm2 is charged to a potential difference V and is then disconnected from the
Softa [21]

Answer:

Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C

Explanation:

We are given that a parallel- plate capacitor is charged to a potential difference V and then disconnected from the voltage source.

1 m =100 cm

Surface area =S=\frac{360}{10000}=0.036 m^2

\Delta d=0.8 cm=0.008 m

\Delta V=100 V

We have to find the charge Q on the positive plates of the capacitor.

V=Initial voltage between plates

d=Initial distance between plates

Initial Capacitance of capacitor

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 S}{d}

Capacitance of capacitor after moving plates

C_1=\frac{\epsilon_0 S}{(d+\Delta d)}

V=\frac{Q}{C}

Potential difference between plates after moving

V=\frac{Q}{C_1}

V+\Delta V=\frac{Q}{C_1}

\frac{Qd}{\epsilon_0S}+100=\frac{Q(d+\Delta d)}{\epsilon_0S}

\frac{Q(d+\Delta d)}{\epsilon_0 S}-\frac{Qd}{\epsilon_0S}=100

\frac{Q\Delta d}{\epsilon_0 S}=100

\epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12}

Q=\frac{100\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.036}{0.008}

Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C

Hence, the charge on positive plate of capacitor=Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C
