A uniform rod of length L is pivoted at L/4 from one end. It is pulled to one side through a very small angle and allowed to osc

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

T= 4.24sec

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula below to calculate.

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }$

Where T is period

L is length of rod

g is acceleration due to gravity = $9.8m/s^{2}$

From the problem, the rod is pivoted at 1/4L which means that three quarter of the rod was used for the oscillation. lets call this $L_{O}$

$L_{O} = 3/4 * 5.95m$

= 4.4625m

thus $T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L_{O} }{g} }$

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{4.4625 }{9.8} }$

T= 4.24sec

A light ray travels in the +x direction and strikes a slanted surface with an angle of 62° between its normal and the ty axis. T

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

- 0.6

Explanation:

Given that angle between normal y axis is 62° so angle between normal

and x axis will be 90- 62 = 28 °. Since incident ray is along x axis , 28 ° will be the angle between incident ray and normal ie it will be angle of incidence

Angle of incidence = 28 °

angle of reflection = 28°

Angle between incident ray and reflected ray = 28 + 28 = 56 °

Angle between x axis and reflected ray = 56 °

x component of reflected ray

= - cos 56 ( it will be towards - ve x axis. )

Answer:

26.9 Pa

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using the continuity equation, which states that the volume flow rate of a fluid in a pipe must be constant; mathematically:

$A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2$ (1)
