Question

Suppose three ho key sticks strike the puck simultaneously with two of them exerting the forces .The result of the three forces is that the hockey puck shows no acc. what must be the components of the third force?

Answer 1

If there is zero acceleration, the net force acting on the puck must be zero. Thus, the three forces must cancel. We have found the components of the combination of the first two forces. The components of the third force must be of equal magnitude and opposite sign in order that all of the components add to zero. Thus, F3=-8.7 N, F3y=-5.2 N.

Answer 2
