The correct option is (a) greater.

<h3>What is simple pendulum?</h3>

A weight hanging from a pivot such that it may freely swing is called a pendulum. Gravity's restoring force will cause a pendulum to accelerate back toward its equilibrium position if it is sideways moved from its resting, equilibrium position.

The effective acceleration of the pendulum is equal to the sum of the acceleration caused by gravity and the elevator's upward acceleration while the elevator is moving upward.

T=2π√L/g(eff)

T=2π√L/(g+a)

Therefore, effective acceleration increases, and which results in a decrease in the period of motion.

Georgia [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is - B. Increase the time it takes to stop the egg once it hits his hand.

Explanation:

In order to catch the egg the force and time makes an impulse to the egg to change its momentum and bring it to rest. In order to change the momentum, one needs to decrease the force exerted onto the egg and increase the time it takes to make it rest.

Less force can be given to the egg by increasing the time to bring it to rest stop the egg once it hits his hand. Other than this it should be caught to the sides.

What will be the fundamental frequency and first three overtones for a 26cm long organ at 20°C if it is open ( at 20°C, the spee
kakasveta [241]

Explanation:

The frequency of an organ pipe if it is open is given by :

f=\dfrac{nv}{2l}

v is speed of sound in air is 343 m/s at 20°C

For fundamental frequency, n = 1

f=\dfrac{1\times 343}{2\times 0.26}\\\\f=659.61\ Hz

First overtone frequency,

f_1=2f\\\\f_1=2\times 659.61\\\\f_1=1319.22\ Hz

Second overtone frequency,

f_2=3f\\\\f_2=3\times 659.61\\\\f_2=1978.83\ Hz

Third overtone frequency

f_3=4f\\\\f_3=4\times 659.61\\\\f_3=2638.44\ Hz

Hence, this is the required solution.

A basketball player grabbing a rebound jumps 76.0 cm vertically. How much total time (ascent and descent) does the player spend
Viefleur [7K]

a) we can answer the first part of this by recognizing the player rises 0.76m, reaches the apex of motion, and then falls back to the ground we can ask how

long it takes to fall 0.13 m from rest: dist = 1/2 gt^2 or t=sqrt[2d/g] t=0.175

s this is the time to fall from the top; it would take the same time to travel

upward the final 0.13 m, so the total time spent in the upper 0.15 m is 2x0.175

= 0.35s

b) there are a couple of ways of finding thetime it takes to travel the bottom 0.13m first way: we can use d=1/2gt^2 twice

to solve this problem the time it takes to fall the final 0.13 m is: time it

takes to fall 0.76 m - time it takes to fall 0.63 m t = sqrt[2d/g] = 0.399 s to

fall 0.76 m, and this equation yields it takes 0.359 s to fall 0.63 m, so it

takes 0.04 s to fall the final 0.13 m. The total time spent in the lower 0.13 m

is then twice this, or 0.08s
