An ice hockey puck is sliding along the vertical wall as shown on the picture (top view shown). Puck is moving in the horizontal plane only. Puck enters a section of the circular curve at point 1 with the velocity Vo=6.5 m/s. The coefficient of friction between the puck and the wall is 'm'=0.25. Puck exits the curve at point 2 that is tilted at an angle a=60degrees. Find the velocity of the puck at that point.

attached is the pic

nottim · Answer

you should draw the pic out yourself (on a piece of paper), then fill in the value that correspond. Or, make a variables list.

nottim · Answer

wait a sec...is that puck climbing the wall? that's what its labelled like..

nottim · Answer

ello

nottim · Answer

imma go, call me maybe!

anonymous · Answer

i think the puck is going up the wall...

anonymous · Answer

so the final velocity is going down/decreasing

anonymous · Answer

is this a momentum or potential energy problem?

nottim · Answer

...the puck shouldn't climb the wall...

nottim · Answer

If the puck IS climbing the wall, UI think it is momentum.
If it's actually going down tho, I think potential
