Answer:

Zero Newtons

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion states that the net force applied to an object is equal to the product between the object's mass and its acceleration:

F=ma

In this case, we want the hockey puck to slide at constant velocity - constant velocity means zero acceleration:

a = 0

And so this means also that the net force is zero:

F = 0

However, the problem says that ice friction and air resistance are negligible - so there are no forces acting on the hockey puck. This means that the puck will continue its motion at constant velocity if we don't apply any other force on it.

Which statement best describes air pressure at high altitudes? (Points : 3)
WARRIOR [948]
Air pressure decreases as altitude increases. this is because air pressure is caused by the gravity of earth, the gravity pulls on the air, compacting it and making a pressure.
But as we go higher, gravity decreases, causing less pull on the air resulting in less air pressure.<span />

According to the concept of length contraction, what happens to the length of an object as it approaches the speed of light and
lord [1]
When an object moves its length contracts in the direction of motion. The faster it moves the shorter it gets in the direction of motion.
The object in this question moves and then stops moving. So it's length first contracts and then expands to its original length when the motion stops.
The speed doesn't have to be anywhere near the speed of light. When the object moves its length contracts no matter how fast or slow it's moving.

4896

0.85 x 45 x 128 = 4896

Change in energy = specific heat capacity x mass x change in temperature

if a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 8080 ft/s, its height in feet after tt second is given
yanalaym [24]

The average velocity for the time period beginning when t=1 and lasting

(i) 0.01 seconds = 63.84 ft/s

(ii) 0.001 seconds = 63.984 ft/s

Given that a ball is thrown with an initial velocity = 80 ft/s

Let 'y' be the height in feet after 't' seconds.

Given,  y=80t-16t^2 gives the height in 't' seconds.

Average velocity = Rate of change of distance

                             = Change in distance/Change in time.

The initial time can be taken as 0 s.

When t =1 s, y = 80 - 16 = 64 ft

(1)  t = 0.01 s

    y = 80 x 0.01 - 16 x 0.01 x 0.01 = 0.7984 ft

    Average velocity = (64 - 0.7984) / (1 -0.01) = 63.84 ft/s

(2) t = 0.001 s

    y = 80 x 0.001 - 16 x 0.001 x 0.001 = 0.079984 ft

    Average velocity = (64 - 0.079984) / (1 -0.001) = 63.984 ft/s

The question is incomplete. Find out the complete question below:

If a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 80 ft/s, it height in feet after t second is given by  y=80t-16t^2 .Find the average velocity for the time period beginning when t=1 and lasting

(i) 0.01 seconds

(ii) 0.001 seconds
