You don't need the mass of the puck to calculate the acceleration.Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time interval) = 6/2 = 3 meters per second2Since the acceleration of gravity on earth is 9.78 m/s2 , the puck's acceleration was 3/9.78 = 0.307 of one G .
If a net force of 5N acts on a hockey puck, it will accelerate in the direction of that force according to Newton's second law (F=ma). The acceleration will depend on the mass of the puck – the greater the mass, the smaller the acceleration, and vice versa.

THE PUCK, you play hockey to get the puck.
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.
Yes, a hockey puck sliding across the ice at a constant speed is in equilibrium. The forces acting upon it are balanced, with no net force causing acceleration.
The hockey puck was invented so hockey players had something to shoot into the goal.
Since Force=mass x acceleration (and acceleration=velocity/time), hence force= 0.2 x(6/2)=0.2 x 3=0.6N
If a puck is placed on the ice so that it isn't moving it will stay where it is placed. That's inertia.If a player whacks the puck straight for the net and no other player gets in the way then the puck will go into the net. The only thing that could slow the puck would be the tiny friction between the ice and the puck but that doesn't amount to much. The air turbulence around a puck must have a slight effect too. But the overall straight line trajectory of the puck is inertia too.In ordinary life, things 'at rest stay at rest' and things that are moving move in straight lines unless additional forces act on those things.
The mass of the hockey puck cannot be determined from the information provided. Acceleration depends on the force applied and the mass of the object, but without knowing the force, we cannot calculate the mass.
The Game of Ice hockey is played with a Puck.
