A 97.0 kg ice hockey player hits a 0.150 kg puck, giving the puck a velocity of 48.0 m/s. If both are initially at rest and if t

he ice is frictionless, how far does the player recoil in the time it takes the puck to reach the goal 14.5 m away

Answer:

s₁ = 0.022 m

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum:

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m₁ = mass of hockey player = 97 kg

m₂ = mass of puck = 0.15 kg

u₁ = u₂ = initial velocities of puck and player = 0 m/s

v₁ = velocity of player after collision = ?

v₂ = velocity of puck after hitting = 48 m/s

Therefore,

(97\ kg)(0\ m/s)+(0.15\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(97\ kg)(v_1)+(0.15\ kg)(48\ m/s)\\\\v_1 = -\frac{(0.15\ kg)(48\ m/s)}{97\ kg} \\v_1 = - 0.074 m/s

negative sign here shows the opposite direction.

Now, we calculate the time taken by puck to move 14.5 m:

s_2 =v_2t\\\\t = \frac{s_2}{v_2} = \frac{14.5\ m}{48\ m/s} \\\\t =  0.3\ s

Now, the distance covered by the player in this time will be:

s_1 = v_1t\\s_1 = (0.074\ m/s)(0.3\ s)

<u>s₁ = 0.022 m</u>

Pierre cycles at 4 miles per hour and travels a distance of 13 miles. How long
amm1812

Answer:

His journey took him 3 hours 15 minutes.

Explanation: 4 miles every hour. So 1 hr is equal to 4 miles, 2 hrs is equal to 8 miles, 3 hrs is equal to 12 miles. Now he just has 1 miles left, and since it takes him a hour to cycle 4 miles, 60 divided by 4 is 15. Therefore, 1 mile is equal to 15 minutes.

A +1.0 nC charge is at x = 0 cm, a -1.0 nC charge is at x = 1.0 cm and a 4.0 nC at x= 2 cm. What is the electric potential energ
lesantik [10]

Answer:

- 2.7 x 10^-6 J

Explanation:

q1 = 1 nC  at x = 0 cm

q2 = - 1 nC at x = 1 cm

q3 = 4 nC at x = 2 cm

The formula for the potential energy between the two charges is given by

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}

where r be the distance between the two charges

By use of superposition principle, the total energy of the system is given by

U = U_{1,2}+U_{2,3}+U_{3,1}

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{2}q_{3}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{3}q_{1}}{0.02}

U=-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 1\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}+-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.02}

U = - 2.7 x 10^-6 J
