Concept explainers
A hockey puck struck by a hockey stick is given an initial speed v0 in the positive x-direction. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ice and the puck is μk. (a) Obtain an expression for the acceleration of the puck. (b) Use the result of part (a) to obtain an expression for the distance d the puck slides. The answer should be in terms of the variables v0, μk, and g only.

- A hockey puck struck by a hockey stick is given an initial speed y in the positive x-direction. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ice and the puck is µz. (a) Obtain an expression for the acceleration of the puck. (b) Use the result of part (a) to obtain an expression for the distance d the puck slides. The answer should be in terms of the variables , lp and gonly.arrow_forwardTo understand kinetic and static friction. A block of mass m lies on a horizontal table. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the table is μs. The coefficient of kinetic friction is μk, with μk<μs. Suppose you push horizontally with precisely enough force to make the block start to move, and you continue to apply the same amount of force even after it starts moving. Find the acceleration aaa of the block after it begins to move. Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables μs, μk, and m, as well as the free-fall acceleration g.arrow_forwardExpress answers in significant figures and scientific notation only. An athlete slides down from rest 40.0 meter along an icy hill which is 35 degrees from the horizontal. He then continues sliding on the level ice. a) If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the athlete and ice is 0.20 (neglect air resistance) find speed (m/s) of the athlete at the foot of the plane. b) find the distance (m) from the foot of the plane to the point where he has landed to the level icearrow_forward
- Question 3: The aerodynamic resistance to motion of a car is nearly proportional to the square of its velocity. Additional frictional resistance is constant, so that the acceleration of the car when coasting may be written a = - C₁ - C₂v², where C₁ and C₂ are constants which depend on the mechanical configuration of the car. If the car has an initial velocity vo when the engine is disengaged, derive an expression for the distance D required for the car to coast to a stop.arrow_forwardA penguin slides at a constant velocity of 1.4 m/s down an icy incline. The incline slopes above the horizontal at an angle of 6.9?degrees. At the bottom of the incline, the penguin slides onto a horizontal patch of ice. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the penguin and the ice is the same for the incline as for the horizontal slope. How much time is required for the penguin to slide to a halt after entering the horizontal patch of ice?arrow_forwardA hockey puck slides with an initial speed of 56.7 m/s on a large frozen lake. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice is 0.05. What is the acceleration on the hockey puck caused by friction? Assume the puck's velocity is in the positive-x direction. And what is the speed of the puck after 6 s?arrow_forward

- You are pushing a wooden crate against a rubber floor. The two surfaces have a static coefficient of friction of 0.45 and a kinetic coefficient of friction of 0.38. The floor is horizontal, and the crate has a mass of 25.0 kg, and is initially at rest. You are pushing with a horizontal force of 155 N. What is the magnitude of the force of friction in this case? Give your answer in units of N, to three significant figures.arrow_forwardIn an exciting game, a baseball player manages to safely slide into second base.
