Answer:

a. −0.12m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the hockey goalie, m₁ = 65 kg

mass of the hockey puck, m₂ = 0.15 kg

velocity of the hockey puck, u₂ = 50 m/s

initial velocity of the hockey goalie, u₁ = 0

let the recoil velocity of the goalie = v

Apply Newton's third law of motion;

action and reaction are equal and opposite.

m₁v = -m₂u₂

65v = -(0.15 x 50)

65v = -7.5

v = - 7.5 / 65

v = -0.12 m/s

This shows that the goalie will move backwards with a velocity of 0.12 m/s.

Points A, B, and C lie along a line from left to right, respectively. Point B is at a lower electric potential than point A. Poi
djyliett [7]

Answer:

A) The particle will accelerate in the direction of point C.

Explanation:

As we know that

potential at points A, B,C and D as V_A, V_B, V_C, V_D  and it is clear from the question that

V_A>V_B>V_C

And we know that flow is always from higher to lower potential (for positive charge due to positive potential energy).

So the charge will accelerate from B toward C.

Hence, the correct option is A.
