Hockey Puck Momentum Conservation of Momentum
Hockey Puck Velocity
Clown Cannon
A hockey puck with a mass of 0.17 kg is traveling to the right along the ice at 15 m/s. It strikes a second hockey
puck with a mass 0.11 kg. The first hockey puck comes to rest after the collision. What is the initial
momentum of the system? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth.)
kg•m/s

energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical means. do not understand what you are asking but hope this

root word, prefixes, and suffixes

initial speed when it is dropped is 150 ft/s

now at the same moment the acceleration due to gravity is perpendicular to its velocity

so as we know that

now we have centripetal acceleration a = 32 ft/s^2 as its perpendicular to velocity

while tangential acceleration at the same moment will be zero

so

now radius of curvature is given as

so the radius of curvature just after it is dropped is 703.125 ft
