1, when it frozen it obserbe the impact so it reduces the bounce affect. It's Newtons 3rd Law.
On the ice, a hockey puck is pushing against much less surface friction, so it will slide with relative ease. On the street, a puck is forced to push against the pavement which it cannot do very well causing it to either stop or bounce across the surface.
No large force is needed for a hockey puck to slide across a frictionless surface. Once the puck is in motion, it will continue to move indefinitely without any additional force due to the absence of friction.
A wooden puck on a wooden floor has a lower coefficient of friction compared to a rubber puck because the surfaces have similar materials, causing less resistance. Additionally, the wooden puck can have a smoother surface, leading to less friction between the two materials.
The hockey puck has kinetic energy as it slides across the ice. This energy is due to the puck's motion and is directly related to its mass and speed.
yes, it just has less friction across the table from the air pushing up on the puck through the holes.
because the tennis has more bounce in it your welcome
The temperature of any object does not change its weight. This is discussed in the ccientific principle called the "Law of Conservation of Mass". The puck will be harder and slightly smaller when frozen.
The puck is not bounce resistant, but bouncing is controlled because they freeze them prior to-and during the games. A warm (or room temperature) puck will bounce as it is rubber, however, once frozen, rubber loses its tendency to bounce. According to Rule 24 concerning pucks in the NHL rulebook: "The home Team shall be responsible for providing an adequate supply of official pucks which shall be kept in a frozen condition. This supply of pucks shall be kept at the penalty bench under the control of one of the regular Off-Ice Officials or a special attendant."
No. It was actually a tennis ball. The first "puck" was a ball with the top and bottom chopped off.
On the ice, a hockey puck is pushing against much less surface friction, so it will slide with relative ease. On the street, a puck is forced to push against the pavement which it cannot do very well causing it to either stop or bounce across the surface.
So it moves better and is slick on the ice. While freezing the puck may help a little with movement on the ice, the actual purpose for freezing is to reduce the bounce. Warm pucks have a surprising amount of bounce that will affect face-off drops, and players' overall ability to handle the puck.
A hard rubber ball, even when frozen, has too much bounce in it and tends to fly off out of the rink too much. The flat sides of the puck make it much easier to keep in the rink.
No, it is so that the puck slides better on the ice. Since the puck becomes harder it would probably do more injury, not less.
