During a slap shot, a hockey player accelerates the puck from a velocity of 8.00 m/s to 40.0 m/s in the same direction. If this shot takes 3.33 × 10−2 s , what is the distance over which the puck accelerates?
In a slap shot, a hockey player accelerates the puck from a velocity of 8.00 m/s to 40.0 m/s in the
same direction. If this shot takes 3.33 x 10-2 s, calculate the distance over which the puck accelerates.
An electron is moving in a straight line with a velocity of 4.0×10^5 m/s. It enters a region 5.0 cm long where it undergoes an acceleration of 6.0×10^12m/s^2 along the same straight line. (a) What is the electron’s velocity when it emerges from this region? b) How long does the electron take to cross the region?
