A grandfather clock is "losing" time because its pendulum moves too slowly. Assume that the pendulum is a massive bob at the end

of a string.A grandfather clock is "losing" time because its pendulum moves too slowly. Assume that the pendulum is a massive bob at the end of a string.The motion of this pendulum can be sped up by:- shortening the string.- lengthening the string.- increasing the mass of the bob.- decreasing the mass of the bob.

Answer:

shortening the string

Explanation:

L = Length of pendulum

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Time period of a pendulum is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L}{g}}

T\propto \sqrt{L}

It can be seen that time period is proportional to the length of the pendulum.

The time period is getting longer.

So, if the length of the string is reduced this will speed up the time period.

Derivation 1.2 showed how to calculate the work of reversible, isothermal expansion of a perfect gas. Suppose that the expansion
stellarik [79]

Answer:

(a) The work done by the gas on the surroundings is, 17537.016 J

(b) The entropy change of the gas is, 73.0709 J/K

(c) The entropy change of the gas is equal to zero.

Explanation:

(a) The expression used for work done in reversible isothermal expansion will be,

where,

w = work done = ?

n = number of moles of gas  = 4 mole

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole K

T = temperature of gas  = 240 K

= initial volume of gas  =  

= final volume of gas  =  

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

The work done by the gas on the surroundings is, 17537.016 J

(b) Now we have to calculate the entropy change of the gas.

As per first law of thermodynamic,

where,

= internal energy

q = heat

w = work done

As we know that, the term internal energy is the depend on the temperature and the process is isothermal that means at constant temperature.

So, at constant temperature the internal energy is equal to zero.

Thus, w = q = 17537.016 J

Formula used for entropy change:

The entropy change of the gas is, 73.0709 J/K

(c) Now we have to calculate the entropy change of the gas when the expansion is reversible and adiabatic instead of isothermal.

As we know that, in adiabatic process there is no heat exchange between the system and surroundings. That means, q = constant = 0

So, from this we conclude that the entropy change of the gas must also be equal to zero.

An archer shoots an arrow with a mass of 45.0 grams from bow pulled
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The force the archer need to pull in order to achieve the height is approximately 101.8 N

Explanation:

By energy conservation principle, puling an elastic bow with a force, for a given distance, performs work which is converted to the potential energy of the arrow at height

The given parameters are;

The mass of the arrow, m = 45.0 grams = 0.045 kg

The distance the elastic bow is pulled, d = 65.0 cm = 0.65 m

The height at which the arrow is reaches, h = 150.0 meters

Let 'F', represent the force the archer need to pull in order to achieve the height

Work done, W = Force × Distance moved in the direction of the force

Therefore;

The work done in pulling the arrow, W = F × d

By energy conservation, we have;

The work done in pulling the arrow, W = The potential energy gained by the arrow, P.E.

W = P.E.

The potential energy gained by the arrow, P.E. = m·g·h

Where;

m = The mass of the arrow

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = The height the arrow reaches

∴ by plugging in the values, P.E. = 0.045 kg ×9.8 m/s² × 150 m = 66.15 J

W = F × d = F × 0.065 m

Also, W = P.E. = 66.15 J

∴ W = F × 0.065 m = 66.15 J

F × 0.065 m = 66.15 J

F = 66.15 J/(0.65 m) = 1323/13 N ≈ 101.8 N

The force the archer need to pull in order to achieve the height, F ≈ 101.8 N.

Define anterior and posterior in correlation to the body. (ANATOMY)
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

it should be right it's from go.ogle hm!!!

Explanation:

Anterior or ventral - front (example, the kneecap is located on the anterior side of the leg). Posterior or dorsal - back (example, the shoulder blades are located on the posterior side of the body). Medial - toward the midline of the body (example, the middle toe is located at the medial side of the foot).

Can someone explain how exactly to calculate the net force? Do you subtract the smaller number from the larger number? Any help
aleksley [76]

Explanation:

Let's say right is positive and left is negative.

F₁ = -150 N

F₂ = 220 N

Fnet = F₁ + F₂

Fnet = -150 N + 220 N

Fnet = 70 N

The magnitude of Fnet is 70 N, and since it's positive, the direction is to the right.

And since Fnet isn't 0, the force is unbalanced and the motion is changing.
