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.

The IRB at the university will decide whether her study meets ethical guidelines before it is initiated. The importance of these codes of conduct is to safeguard research participants, the status of psychology and the researchers or psychologists themselves. Moral issues hardly yield a simple, unequivocal, right or wrong answer. It is consequently often a matter of judgment whether the research is justified or not. For instance, it might be that a study roots psychological or physical uneasiness to participants, maybe they agonize pain or maybe even come to solemn harm.

Which part of an atom makes up most of its volume ?
alexandr1967 [171]
Remember that like charges repel each other. That is, positive repels positive and negative repels negative. Similar to how the north poles of magnets repel each other and south poles repel. However, at the atomic scale, protons, which have positive charge, are more influenced by the "Strong Force," which binds them close together. If they were to be separated ever so slightly, then the electromagnetic force would take over and they would repel each other like you'd expect. 

Neutrons are also held together via the Strong Force, but don't have a charge so when separated, don't have an electromagnetic force pushing them away from each other.

However, electrons act differently. There is no "Strong Force" just the electromagnetic force. So, they keep a great distance from each other. 

So in an atom, protons and neutrons stay close to each other, taking up little volume, while electrons take up a lot of volume.

BTW, the reason why electrons and protons act differently when they are close together is because protons are made up of smaller particles the carry this Strong Force. For electrons, there is no smaller constituent. And therefore, all you have is the electromagnetic force to influence it. That's it.

Hope that helps.

garri49 [273]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The answer is 1400 J, according to my Physics teacher.

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

You need to take into account everything that is listed in the question; it's important to remember that the question is asking about the change in gravitational potential energy of the object-object-Earth system from 0s to 10s, not 0s to 20s. :)
