A 0.160-kg hockey puck is moving on an icy, frictionless,

horizontal surface. At t=0, the puck is moving to the right at 3.00m/s.

(a) Calculate the velocity of the puck (magnitude and direction) after a force of 25.0 N directed to the right has been applied for 0.050 s. (b) If, instead, a force of 12.0 N directed to the left is applied from t= 0 to t= 0.050 s, what is the final velocity of the puck?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The velocity of the puck when 25N force is applied is 10.81m/sin the right direction.

(b) Hence the velocity of the puck when 12N force is applied is 0.75m/sin the left direction.

Step by step solution

01

The formula used in this exercise

The momentum of a particle: The momentum P→of the particle’s mass mand velocity v→.

p→=mv→

Newton’s second law

The net force on a particle is equal to the rate of change of the particle’s momentum.

∑F=dpdt

02

Finding the velocity of pluck for part (a)

Given in the question.

Mass of the puck, m=0.160kg

Considering the right direction as the positive direction.

The initial velocity of the puck, vi=3.00m/s

∑F=25N∆t=0.05s

According to the Newton’s second law

localid="1664431426577" ∑F=dpdt∑F=p2-p1∆t∑F=mvf-mvi∆t

Substituting the values into the formula.

25=0.16vf-0.1630.050.16vf=25×0.05+0.48vf=1.730.16vf=10.81m/s

Hence the velocity of the puck when 25N force is applied is 10.81 m/s in the right direction.

03

Finding the velocity of pluck for part (b)

Given in the question.

Mass of the puck, m=0.160kg

Considering the right direction as the positive direction.

The initial velocity of the puck, vi=3.00m/s

∑F=-12N

∆t=0.05s

According to the Newton’s second law

∑F=dpdt∑F=p2-p1∆t∑F=mvf-mvi∆t

Substituting the values into the formula.

-12=0.16vf-0.1630.050.16vf=-12×0.05+0.48vf=-0.120.16vf=-0.75m/s

Hence the velocity of the puck when 12N force is applied is 0.75 m/s in the left direction.

(b) How much time from when it leaves your hand does it take theputty to reach the ceiling?

A ball is thrown straight up from the edge of the roof of a building. A second ball is dropped from the roof 1.00slater. Ignore air resistance. (a) If the height of the building is20.0m, what must the initial speed of the first ball be if both are to hit the ground at the same time? On the same graph, sketch the positions of both balls as a function of time, measured from when the first ball is thrown. Consider the same situation, but now let the initial speedv0of the first ball be given and treat the heightof the building as an unknown. (b) What must the height of the building be for both balls to reach the ground at the same time if (i)localid="1655791911691" v0is9.5m/s? (c) Ifv0is greater than some valuevmax, no value ofexists that allows both balls to hit the ground at the same time. Solve forvmax. The valuevmaxhas a simple physical interpretation. What is it? (d) Ifv0is less than some valuevmin, no value ofexists that allows both balls to hit the ground at the same time. Solve forvmin. The valuevminalso has a simple physical interpretation. What is it?
