Answer:

At the maximum height the ball will have an instantaneous velocity of zero. The formula for instantaneous velocity is

v = v₀ + at

Where v is the instantaneous velocity, v₀ is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration due to gravity, -9.8 m/sec², and t is the time.

We need instantaneous velocity to = 0.

0 = 20 - 9.8t : Isolate t => 1st step: Add 9.8t to both sides

9.8t = 20 : Isolate t => 2nd step: Divide both sides by 9.8

t = 2.04 seconds (approximately)

A simple pendulum is made from a 0.54-m-long string and a small ball attached to its free end. The ball is pulled to one side th
Serga [27]

Answer:

0.37sec

Explanation:

Period of oscillation of a simple pendulum of length L is:

T = 2 π × √ (L /g)

L=length of string 0.54m

g=acceleration due to gravity

T-period

T = 2 x 3.14 x √[0.54/9.8]

T = 1.47sec

An oscillating pendulum, or anything else in nature that involves "simple harmonic" (sinusoidal) motion, spends 1/4 of its period going from zero speed to maximum speed, and another 1/4 going from maximum speed to zero speed again, etc. After four quarter-periods it is back where it started.

The ball will first have V(max) at T/4,

=>V(max) = 1.47/4 = 0.37 sec

Which among the following statement/s is correct?
seropon [69]

Answer:

(D) None

Explanation:

The force of gravity is the force pulling every element of matter together. The more the matter the higher the force of gravity.

Examples of this force at work are;

  • The force that causes an apple to fall from the tree
  • The force that causes a rock to roll downside a hill
  • The force causing people to walk on the earth surface instead of floating

The force that facilitates a pen on your hand to write on a paper is friction force between the pen and the paper. Gravitational force acts downwards thus force applied on an object beside you is not the force of gravity.
