Unveiling The Velocity: How Fast Does A Hockey Puck Soar On Ice?
The speed of a hockey puck depends on various factors, including the coefficient of restitution (COR) in puck collisions, its mass and inertia, the force applied during shots, the friction and elasticity of the ice surface, air resistance, temperature, and humidity. The COR determines the energy retained after a collision, while puck mass influences its…
