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.

A detailed explanation of static and dynamic friction . plsssss​
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Static friction is what keeps the box from moving without being pushed, and it must be overcome with a sufficient opposing force before the box will move. Kinetic friction (also referred to as dynamic friction) is the force that resists the relative movement of the surfaces once they're in motionExplanation:

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. Complete the following statemen
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4

Explanation:

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. The centripetal acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{R}

We need to find how the "centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4"

It can be done by keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4 such that,

R' = R/4

New centripetal acceleration will be,

a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R'}

a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R/4}

a'=4\times \dfrac{v^2}{R}

a'=4\times a

So, the centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4.

4. A box of books weighing 325 N moves at a constant velocity across the floor when the box is pushed with a force of 425 N exer
Rudik [331]

Answer:

0.61°

Explanation:

Since the box move at constant velocity, it means there is no acceleration then we can say it has a balanced force system.

Pulling force= resistance force

From the formula for pulling force,

F(x)= Fcos(θ)

= 425×cos(35.2)

=347N

The force exerted downward at an angle of 35.2° below the horizontal= Fsin(θ)= 425sin(35.2)

=425×0.567=245N

Resistance force= (325N+ 245N) (α)= 570N(α)

We can now equates the pulling force to resistance force

570 (α)= 347N

(α)= 347/570

= 0.61
