Why does a ice-hockey puck have less friction than a ball rolling on the ground?
An ice-hockey puck has less friction than a ball rolling on the ground because ice surfaces are smoother and provide less resistance compared to the irregularities on the ground that increase friction. Additionally, the material of the ice-hockey puck and the ice surface are designed to have low friction properties to allow for smoother and faster movement on the ice.
Can a puck accelerate when a hockey stick hit it?
No, the puck cannot accelerate because the exact moment the hockey stick touches the puck, that will be the maximum speed it will reach. for the puck to go faster, it would need extra propulsion methods. Ice would not make it go faster.
