Question

if a hockey puck is sliding across the ice at a constant speed, what can be 1 point said about the puck? forces on the puck are balanced because its speed is constant forces on the puck are unbalanced because its speed is constant there are no forces acting on the puck while at a constant speed if that same hockey puck is stopped by a players hockey stick, what can be 1 point said about the puck at the moment it slows down? forces on the puck are balanced which causes it to slow down forces on the puck are unbalanced which causes it to slow down there are no forces acting on the puck at the moment it slows down

Explanation:

Según la segunda ley de Newton, cuando un objeto se mueve a velocidad constante, las fuerzas netas sobre él son cero, es decir, las fuerzas están equilibradas. Cuando el objeto cambia su estado de movimiento (en este caso, se detiene), las fuerzas son desequilibradas.

Answer:

1. Forces on the puck are balanced because it's speed is constant
2. Forces on the puck are unbalanced which causes it to slow down
