The grandfather clock will now run slow (Option A).

<h3>What is Time Period of an oscillation?</h3>
  • The time period of an oscillation refers to the time taken by an object to complete one oscillation.
  • It is the inverse of frequency of oscillation; denoted by "T".

Now,

  • \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}, where L is the length and g is the gravitational constant, is the formula for a pendulum's period.
  • The period will increase as one climbs a very tall mountain because g will slightly decrease.
  • Due to this and the previous issue, the clock runs slowly and it seems that one second is longer than it actually is.

Hence, the grandfather clock will now run slow (Option A).

A 100 kg box is suspended from two ropes. The "left rope makes an angle of 20" degrees with the vertical, and the right rope mak
GarryVolchara [31]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the box, m = 100 kg          

Left rope makes an angle of 20 degrees with the vertical, and the right rope makes an angle of 40 degrees.  

From the attached figure, the x and y component of forces is given by :

T_{1x} =-T_1 cos (20)

T_{2x} = T_2 cos (40)

mg_x = 0

T_{1y} = T_1 sin (20)

T_{2y} = T_2 sin (40)

mg_y= -mg

Let R_x and R_y is the resultant in x and y direction.

R_x=-T_1 cos (20)+T_2 cos (40)+0

R_y=T_1 sin(20)+T_2 sin(40)-mg

As the system is balanced the net force acting on it is 0. So,

-T_1 cos (20)+T_2 cos (40)+0=0.............(1)

T_1 sin(20)+T_2 sin(40)-100\times 9.8=0..................(2)

On solving equation (1) and (2) we get:  

T_1=866.86\ N (tension on the left rope)

T_2=1063.36\ N (tension on the right rope)

So, the tension on the right rope is 1063.36 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

3. How much work is done when you pull a 6 N wagon for 5 meters?
8090 [49]

Answer:

<h2>30 J</h2>

Explanation:

The work done by an object can be found by using the formula

workdone = force × distance

From the question

force = 6 N

distance = 5 m

We have

workdone = 6 × 5 = 30

We have the final answer as

<h3>30 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

These diagrams represent two types of tectonic plate boundaries
trapecia [35]

Convergent boundaries are caused by the collision of two plates and can originate volcanoes. Transforming boundaries produce fractures by displacement. <em>The correct option is D. Type A boundaries have fewer volcanoes. </em>

----------------------------------------

The crust -the outermost layer of the earth- is divided into many plates that move over the mantle.

These plates are limited by three types of ridges or borders that differ in the movement they produce.

Boundaries types:

I. Divergent:

  • This boundary occurs when two plates separate and molten material rises from the mantle creating a new crust.

  • The hot material creates a new seabed between the separating plates, expanding the sea bottom.

II. Convergent.

  • Collision area between two plates.

  • Two oceanic plates might collide, or one oceanic plate with a continental one.

  • In this last case, the oceanic crust sinks under the continental plate, and magma rises to the surface by crevices.

  • The thicker and older plate subduces under the other plate.

  • Collisions create volcanic arches and continental arches.

III. Transforming.

  • The plates slide laterally with each other, and they are usually called faults.

  • It is associated, in general, with the oceanic ridge, although it might also occur in the continental plate.

  • No rocky material is either destroyed or formed.

  • When the plates move and produce a displacement of one transforming limits from side to side, earthquakes occur.

  • The movement breaks the crust and originates pronounced fractures.

In the attached images, we can see

  • image A representing transforming boundaries,
  • image B representing Convergent boundaries.

Image B is the one that can originate volcanoes because transforming boundaries only produce fractures.

So the correct option would be D.

dusya [7]

The magnitude of average current is 2.02 * 10⁻¹⁴ A.

<h3 /><h3>What is current?</h3>

A stream of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, travelling through an electrical conductor or a vacuum is known as an electric current. The net rate of electric charge flowing through a surface or into a control volume is how it is calculated.

Number of electrons passing per second = 4910/ 0.0662 = 74169.18

Number of proton passing per second = 3485/0.0662 = 52643.50

current due to electrons,

I = ne

= 74169.18 * 1.6 * 10⁻¹⁹

= 1.18 * 10⁻¹⁴ A

current due to protons,

I = ne

= 52643.50 * 1.6 *  10⁻¹⁹

= 0.84 * 10⁻¹⁴ A

total current  I = Ie + Ip

I =( 1.18 + 0.84 ) * 10⁻¹⁴ A

I = 2.02 * 10⁻¹⁴ A
