The length of the second pendulum on earth is 1m and on the moon 1/6m.

Given:

The time period of a second pendulum T = 2s

By using the formula T = 2π √l/g we can calculate the length of the pendulum on earth and the moon.

Here g = acceleration due to gravity and

l = the length of the pendulum.

Now

l = g(T/ 2π)^2

l = 9.8 m/s^2(2s / 2 x 3.14)^2

le = 1 m

Now calculate the length of the pendulum on the moon

T =  2π √lm/gm      ∴ gm = ge/6

Now putting the value of g we get.

or 2 = 2 π √lm / ge/6

2 = 2 π √6lm / π ^2le

lm = le/6

now given le = 1m

lm = 1/6 m

Thus the length of the second pendulum on earth is 1m and on the moon 1/6m.

With the switch closed, how does the voltage across the 20-ω resistor compare to the voltage across the 10-ω resistor?
jasenka [17]
In electricity, the most famous and basic equation is the Ohm's Law which relates the parameters voltage, current and resistance. One form of this law as written in equation is V = IR, where V is the voltage in volts, I is the current in amperes and R is the resistance in ohms. These parameters depends in the arrangements, whether it's series or parallel.

In a series connection, the voltage is greater across a high-resistance resistor. Therefore, the voltage is much greater for the 20-ohm resistor. However,if it is a parallel circuit, the voltage is just the same for both resistors.

An object is five focal lengths from a concave mirror.how do the object and image heights compare?
enot [183]

An object distance is presented as s = 5f and we know that the mirror equation relates the image distance to the object distance and the focal length.

The mirror equation is 1/f = 1/s + 1/s’ where the variable f stands for the focal length of the mirror. Variable (s) represents the distance between the mirror surface and the object and the variable <span>(s’) represents the distance between the mirror surface and the image. </span>

In addition, a concave mirror will have a positive focal length (f) and a convex mirror will have a negative focal length (f).

Now, we then have 1/f = 1/5f + 1/s’ which is s’ = 5f/4

Then we get the magnification ratio that expresses the size or amount of magnification or reduction of the object or image and to get the magnification, we use this equation: M= s’/s

M= 5f/4x5f

s’ = 1/4s

Therefore, the image height is one fourth of the object height

If y = 0.02 sin (30x – 200t) (SI units), the frequency of the wave is
leva [86]

Answer:

31.831 Hz.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • \rm y = 0.02\sin(30x-200 t).

The vertical displacement of a wave is given in generalized form as

\rm y = A\sin(kx -\omega t).

<em>where</em>,

  • A = amplitude of the displacement of the wave.
  • k = wave number of the wave = \dfrac{2\pi }{\lambda}.
  • \lambda = wavelength of the wave.
  • x = horizontal displacement of the wave.
  • \omega = angular frequency of the wave = \rm 2\pi f.
  • f = frequency of the wave.
  • t = time at which the displacement is calculated.

On comparing the generalized equation with the given equation of the displacement of the wave, we get,

\rm A=0.02.\\k=30.\\\omega =200.\\

therefore,

\rm 2\pi f=200\\\\\Rightarrow f = \dfrac{200}{2\pi}=31.831\ Hz.

It is the required frequency of the wave.

What is the difference between a negative feedback system and a positive feedback system?
Anni [7]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The negative feedback is responsible for maintaining equilibrium (stability) in a system as it lessens effects, which is contrary to positive feedback which increases reaction and moves a system further away from equilibrium (stability), It does so by amplifying the effects of a product or event and occurs when something needs to happen quickly. e.g

  • Insulin lowers down blood sugar levels, so when the body detects that it has too much sugar, the pancreas is prompted to release insulin and only stops when balance is achieved; hence, negative feedback.  
  •  When there is a tear on the skin, a chemical is released. This chemical causes platelets in the blood to activate, hence they release a chemical which signals more platelets to activate, until the wound is clotted, positive feedback.
