Why do we not consider the strong nuclear force when we describe the forces between atoms?

This is because, nuclear forces are short range forces.

The protons and neutrons are collectively called nucleons and they are found in the nucleus of an atom. These nucleons are held together by a strong attractive force called the nuclear force.

When atoms combine, they are held together by forces determined by electrons in the outermost shell. The influence of the nuclear force does not extend beyond the nucleus because they are short range forces.

Hence, we not consider the strong nuclear force when we describe the forces between atoms.

A 90. 0-kg ice hockey player hits a 0. 150-kg puck, giving the puck a velocity of 45. 0 m/s. If both are initially at rest and i

The distance traveled by the hockey player is 0.025 m.

<h3>The principle of conservation of linear momentum;</h3>

The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that, the total momentum of an isolated system is always conserved.

The final velocity of the hockey play is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

$m_1v_1 = m_2 v_2\\\\v_1 = \frac{m_2 v_2}{m_1} \\\\v_1 = \frac{0.150 \times 45}{90} \\\\v_1 = 0.075 \ m/s$

The time taken for the puck to reach 15 m is calculated as follows;

$t = \frac{d}{v} \\\\t = \frac{15\ m}{45 \ m/s} \\\\t = 0.33 \ s$

The distance traveled by the hockey player at the calculated time is;

$d = vt\\\\d = 0.075 \ m/s \ \times 0.33 \ s\\\\d = 0.025 \ m$

The cable holding a 2125 kg elevator has a maximum strength of 21,750 N. What is the maximum upward acceleration the cable can g

vivado [14]

Answer:

10.23m/s^2

Explanation:

GIven data

mass of elevator = 2125 kg

Force= 21,750 N

Required

The maximum acceleration upward

F= ma

a= F/m

a=21,750/2125

a= 10.23m/s^2

Hence the acceleration is 10.23m/s^2
