A 110 ghockey puck sent sliding over ice is stopped in 15 mby the frictional force on it from the ice.

(a) If its initial speed is 6.0 m/s, what is the magnitude of the frictional force?

(b) What is the coefficient of friction between the puck and the ice?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a)f=0.13Nb)K=0.12

Step by step solution

01

Given data

  • The mass of the hockey puck is m=110g.
  • The distance traveled before stopping iss=15m.
  • The initial velocity of the hockey puck isv0=6m/s.
  • The final velocity of the hockey puck is v=0m/s.

Understanding the concept

This problem is based on the kinematic equations of motion in which the motion of an object is described at constant acceleration. Use kinematics equations to calculate the acceleration and frictional force. We can calculate the kinetic friction coefficient from the frictional force.

Force:

v2=vo2+2as

(a)Calculate the magnitude of the frictional force if its initial speed is 6.0 m/s

The free body diagram of the hockey puck is shown below:

To calculate the acceleration expression, use kinematics equations:

v2=vo2+2as

The final velocity is zero, and the expression can be written as:

a=-vo2/2s

To calculate frictional force, use Newton鈥檚 second law of motion:

f=ma=mvo22s

Substitute the values in the above expression, and we get,

f=0.115kg6m/s215mf=0.13N

Thus, the magnitude of the friction force is0.13N.

04

(b) Calculate the coefficient of friction between the puck and the ice

To calculate the kinetic frictional coefficient, use the formula for kinetic friction:

kmg=f

Substitute the values in the above expression, and we get,

k=0.13N0.115kg9.8m/s2k=0.12

Thus, the coefficient of friction is 0.12.

A ski that is placed on snow will stick to the snow. However, when the ski is moved along the snow, the rubbing warms and partially melts the snow, reducing the coefficient of kinetic friction and promoting sliding. Waxing the ski makes it water repellent and reduces friction with the resulting layer of water. A magazine reports that a new type of plastic ski is especially water repellent and that, on a gentle 200 mslope in the Alps, a skier reduced his top-to-bottom time from 61 swith standard skis to 42 swith the new skis. Determine the magnitude of his average acceleration with (a) the standard skis and (b) the new skis. Assuming a 3.0slope, compute the coefficient of kinetic friction for (c) the standard skis and (d) the new skis.

An airplane is flying in a horizontal circle at a speed of 480km/h(Fig. 6-41). If its wings are tilted at angle=40to the horizontal, what is the radius of the circle in which the plane is flying? Assume that the required force is provided entirely by an 鈥渁erodynamic lift鈥 that is perpendicular to the wing surface.

Block B in Fig. 6-31 weighs 711N.The coefficient of static friction between block and table is 0.25; angle is 300; assume that the cord between B and the knot is horizontal. Find the maximum weight of block A for which the system will be stationary?

In Fig. 6-62, a 5.0 kgblock is sent sliding up a plane inclined at =37while a horizontal force of magnitude 50 Nacts on it. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and plane is0.30. What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (up or down the plane) of the block鈥檚 acceleration? The block鈥檚 initial speed is 4.0 m/s. (c) How far up the plane does the block go? (d) When it reaches its highest point, does it remain at rest or slide back down the plane?

In Fig. 6-24, a forceacts on a block weighing 45N.The block is initially at rest on a plane inclined at angle =150to the horizontal. The positive direction of the x axis is up the plane. Between block and plane, the coefficient of static friction is s=0.50and the coefficient of kinetic friction is k=0.34. In unit-vector notation, what is the frictional force on the block from the plane when is (a) (-5.0N)i^, (b) (-8.0N)i^, and (c) (-15N)?
