Calculate a pendulum's frequency of oscillation (in Hz) if the pendulum completes one cycle in 0.5 s.

1 answer:

3 0

Time taken to complete one oscillation for a pendulum is Time Period, T = 0.5 s
Frequency of the pendulum oscillation = 1 / Time Period => f = 1 / T = 1 / 0.5
Frequency f = 2 Hz

A river 800m wide flows at the rate of 5km/h . A swimmer who can swim at 10km/h in still water wants to cross the river straight

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

At an angle of $30^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Assume the river flows from East to West so for the swimmer to cross across it, assume he crosses it from West to East.

The resultant speed will be given by

$R= \sqrt {10^{2}-5^{2}=\sqrt {75}\approx 8.66 km/h\\Direction=sin^{-1}\frac {5}{10}\approx 30^{\circ}$

Two objects, A and B, each of mass o.22 kg, are moving at 0.34 m/s directly toward each other. What is the speed of Object A aft

ki77a [65]

Theoretically, if the objects have the same mass and are moving towards each other at a speed of $0.34m s^{-1}$ , after a perfectly elastic collision, the object A is supposed to move with the same velocity in the opposite direction.

What is the acceleration of the the object during the first 4 seconds?

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Velocity (m/s) over time (s) graph

We could write out our average acceleration as:

a = Δv/ Δta=Δv/Δta, equals, Δ, v, slash, Δ, t

a = (15 m/s - 0 m/s) / 0.2 seconds

a = 15 m/s / 0.2 seconds

a = 75 m/s / second

Explanation:

What this formula is telling us is that if we know the acceleration of an object, and the ... we can plug in our acceleration of 12.5 m/s2 for a, and 4 seconds for t.
