How do Newton’s laws of motion explain why it is important to keep the ice smooth on a hockey rink so that players can pass a pu

Answer:

Newton's first law

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force. Therefore, when the ice is smooth, friction gets lesser, and the force acted on that Puck will be decreased.

How much work did the movers do (horizontally) pushing a 41.0-kg crate 10.6 m across a rough floor without acceleration, if the
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The required work done is 2555.448~J

Explanation:

Consider 'F' is the applied force on the crate and 'f' be the force created by friction. According to the figure if '\mu_{k}' be the coefficient of friction, then

f = \mu_{k} \times N = \mu_{k} \times Mg

where 'M', 'N' and 'g' are the mass of the crate, the normal force aced upon the block and the acceleration due to gravity respectively.

Since the application of force by the movers does not create any acceleration to the block, we can write

F = f = \mu_{k} \times M \times g = 0.6 \times 41~Kg~ \times 9.8~m~s^{-2} = 241.08~N

So the work done (W) in moving the crate by a distance s = 10.6 m is

W = F \times s = 241.08~N \times 10.6~m = 2555.448 J

A 75kg hockey player is skating across the ice at a speed of 6.0m/s. What is the magnitude of the average force required to stop
liq [111]

Answer:

692.31 N

Explanation:

Applying,

F = ma............... Equation 1

Where F = Average force required to stop the player, m = mass of the player, a = acceleration of the player

But,

a = (v-u)/t............ Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F = m(v-u)/t............ Equation 3

From the question,

Given: m = 75 kg, u = 6.0 m/s, v = 0 m/s (to stop), t = 0.65 s

Substitute these values into equation 3

F = 75(0-6)/0.65

F = -692.31 N

Hence the average force required to stop the player is 692.31 N

Rocks A and B are located at the same height on top of a hill. The mass of rock A is twice the mass of rock B. How does the pote
Ronch [10]

Potential energy is defined by formula

U = mgh

here

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

Now here two different stones are located at same height

while mass of stone A is twice that of stone B

so here we can say potential energy of A is

U_a = (2m)gh

Similarly potential energy of B is

U_b = mgh

now if we take the ratio of two energy

\frac{U_a}{U_b} = 2

so we can say potential energy of stone A is two times the potential energy of B

The formula is x = 1/2 at^2 and I have managed to fill in the variables as this. d = 1/2 9.81 m/s^2 1^2
Artyom0805 [142]

Right, as you mentioned in the comments, you find d by plugging in the different values of t.

For t=1\,\mathrm s, we have

d=\dfrac12\left(9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(1\,\mathrm s)^2

d=\left(4.905\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(1\,\mathrm s^2\right)

d=4.905\,\mathrm m

Similarly, for t=2\,\mathrm s, you get

d=\dfrac12\left(9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(2\,\mathrm s\right)

d=\left(4.905\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(4\,\mathrm s^2\right)

d=19.62\,\mathrm m
