Friction is the force that acts on the opposite side of direction of force, thus it manages to decelerate an object, so it acts upward along the plane

Find the ratio of the new/old periods of a pendulum if the pendulum were transported from earth to the moon, where the accelerat

vichka [17]

The period of a pendulum is given by
$T=2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }$
where L is the pendulum length and g is the gravitational acceleration.

We can write down the ratio between the period of the pendulum on the Moon and on Earth by using this formula, and we find:
$\frac{T_m}{T_e} = \frac{2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g_m} } }{2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g_e} } }= \sqrt{ \frac{g_e}{g_m} }$
where the labels m and e refer to "Moon" and "Earth".

Since the gravitational acceleration on Earth is $g_e = 9.81 m/s^2$ while on the Moon is $g_m=1.63 m/s^2$ , the ratio between the period on the Moon and on Earth is
$\frac{T_m}{T_e}= \sqrt{ \frac{g_e}{g_m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{9.81 m/s^2}{1.63 m/s^2} }=2.45$

How many joules of heat must be transferred to a 410-g aluminum pizza pan to raise its temperature from 32oC to 232oC? The speci

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

recall that heat absorbed released is given by

Q = mc*(T2 - T1)

where

m = mass (in g)

c = specific heat capacity (in J/g-k)

T = temperature (in C or K)

*note: Q is (+) when heat is absorbed and (-) when heat is released.

substituting,

Q = (480)*(0.97)*(234 - 22)

Q = 98707 J = 98.7 kJ

Answer:

A. We have that radius r = 4.00m intensity I = 8.00 W/m^

total power = power/ Area ( 4πr2)= 8.00 w/m^2( 4π ( 4.00 m)2=1607.68 W

b) I = total power/ 4πr2= 8.00 W/m2 ( 4.00 m/ 9.5 m)2= 1.418 W/m2

c) E = total power x time= 1607 . 68 W x 1s= 1607.68 J

A 2.4-kg ball falling vertically hits the floor with a speed of 2.5 m/s and rebounds with a speed of 1.5 m/s. What is the magnit

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

9.6 Ns

Explanation:

Note: From newton's second law of motion,

Impulse = change in momentum

I = m(v-u).................. Equation 1

Where I = impulse, m = mass of the ball, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity.

Given: m = 2.4 kg, v = 2.5 m/s, u = -1.5 m/s (rebounds)

Substitute into equation 1

I = 2.4[2.5-(-1.5)]

I = 2.4(2.5+1.5)

I = 2.4(4)

I = 9.6 Ns
