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.

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 65.7 kg person standing on the roof of a 135 meter building?
horrorfan [7]
For the purpose we will use the following equation for potential energy:
U = m * g * h
In the above equation, m represents the mass of the object, h represents the height of the object and g represents the gravitational field strength (9.8 N/kg on Earth).
When we plug values into the equation, we get following:
U= 65.7kg * 9.8 N/kg *135m = 86921.1 J = 86.92 kJ

When the formula m*g=F-Fg is used?​
valina [46]

The formula (ma = F - Fg) is used to determine the net upward force acting on a body.

<h3>What is net upward force acting on a body?</h3>

The net upward force acting on a body is the resultant or sum of all the upward forces acting on a body at a given time.

ma = F - Fg

where;

  • F is the applied force
  • Fg is the force of gravity
  • ma is the resultant force

Thus, the formula (ma = F - Fg) is used to determine the net upward force acting on a body.
