When the hockey stick hits the ice before hitting the puck during a slap shot, it loads the stick with what kind of energy? (one word)

Potential energy

Explanation:

When hockey stick hits the ice, the ice sticks to the hockey stick. This increases the weight of the stick thereby increasing the potential energy of the stick (m g h). When hockey stick is swung,the potential energy converts into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy gained by the body due virtue of its motion. It is the product of mass and square of the speed. Thus, more the mass and speed, more is gain in kinetic energy and when it hits the puck, it transfers greater amount of energy.

given data:

determine the horse power (h.p) = ?

force applied to move the box(f) = 10 pounds,

box lifted from a distance         (d) = 3 feet

time taken to lift                         (t) = 10 sec,

the horse power is defined as amount of work required to move a load. the horse power is equal to 550 foot-pound per second

                  1 h.p   = 550 foot-pound/second

it can also be defined as the the load that need to be move a body for certain distance in a certain amount of time.

mathematically,

                      h.p = (force × distance)/ time

                            = (10 × 3)/ 10

                            = 30/10

                            = 3 foot -pound/sec

hence, the horse power is needed to move the box is 3 foot-pound/second

important note: 1 h.p = 550 foot-pound/second = 746 watts

spare some change and give it to the poor
