Two Hockey Pucks Are Initially at Rest on a Horizontal AA

Question 25

Multiple Choice

Two hockey pucks are initially at rest on a horizontal plane of frictionless ice. Puck AA has twice the mass of puck BB . Suppose we apply the same constant force on each puck until each puck has crossed a finish line 1 m1 \mathrm{~m} away from its starting point. How do the puck's kinetic energies compare when each crosses the finish line?


A) KA=4KBK_{A}=4 K_{B}
B) KA=2KBK_{A}=2 K_{B}
C) KA=KBK_{A}=K_{B}
D) KB=2KAK_{B}=2 K_{A}
E) KB=4KAK_{B}=4 K_{A}
F) Some other relationship (specify)
