seropon [69]

Answer:

The speed of the white puck immediately after the collision is 2.6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Two pucks are equal masses.

Speed of black puck = 1.5 m/s

According to given figure,

We need to calculate the speed of the white puck immediately after the collision

Using law of conservation of momentum

mv=m_{1}v_{1}\cos\theta+m_{2}v_{2}\cos\theta

Put the value into the formula according to figure

m\times3=m\times v_{1}\times\cos30+m\times1.5\times\cos60

3m=0.866m v_{1}+0.75m

v_{1}=\dfrac{3-0.75}{0.866}

v_{1}=2.6\ m/s

Hence, The speed of the white puck immediately after the collision is 2.6 m/s.

Dan is gliding on his skateboard at 4.0 m/s. He suddenly jumps backward off the skateboard, kicking the skateboard forward at 8.
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

3.6 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before jump = Total momentum after jump

<em>Note: Before Dan jump off the skateboard, they where both moving with the same velocity</em>

u(m+m') = mv+m'v'................. Equation 1

Where m = Dan's mass, m' = mass of the skateboard, u = common velocity before the jump, v = Dan's final velocity, v' = The final velocity of the skateboard.

make v the subject of the equation

v = [u(m+m')-m'v')]/m.............. Equation 2

Given: u = 4.0 m/s, m = 50 kg, m' = 5 kg, v' = 8 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

v = [4(50+5)-(5×8)]/50

v = (220-40)/50

v = 180/50

v = 3.6 m/s

A player strikes a hockey puck giving it a velocity of 30.252 m/s. The puck slides across the ice for 0.267 s after which time i
erica [24]

Answer:

The average drag force is  1.206 (-i)  N

Explanation:

You have to apply the equations of<em> Impulse</em>:

I=FmedΔt

Where I and Fmed (the average force) are vectors.

The Impulse can also be expressed as the change in the <em>quantity of motion</em> (vector P)

I=P2-P1

P=mV (m is the mass and v is the velocity)

You can calculate the quantity of motion at the beggining and at the end of the given time:

Replace the mass in kg, dividing the mass by 1000 to convert it from g to kg.

P1=(0.179kg)(30.252m/s) i=  5.414 i kg.m/s

P2=0.179kg)(28.452m/s) i = 5.092 i kg. m/s

Where i is the unit vector in the x-direction.

Therefore:

I= 5.092 i - 5.414 i = -0.322 i

The average drag force is:

Fmed= I/Δt = -0.322 i/ 0.267s = -1.206 i N
