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.

How does the size of a planet affected the amount and type of gas in its atmosphere
dalvyx [7]
There are lots of variables that directly and indirectly contribute to the presence of gas on a surface
if the size of a planet is relatively small it will in turn be that of a smaller area which results in the less area to be covered for gas which basically means higher presence
I can go in depth more but I don't think that would be necessary all you need to know is this ...based on the size and gas will in turn be parallel to it's conformity

A 150-W lamp is placed into a 120-V ac outlet. What is the peak current?
devlian [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Formula

W = I * E

Givens

W = 150

E = 120

I = ?

Solution

150 = I * 120   Divide by 120

150/120 = I

5/4  = I

I = 1.25

Note: This is an edited note. You have to assume that 120 is the RMS voltage in order to go any further. That means that the peak voltage is √2 times the size of 120. The current has the same note applied to it. If the voltage is its rms value, then the current must (assuming the properties of the bulb do not change)

On the other hand, if the voltage is the peak value at 120 then 1.25 will be correct.

However I would go with the other answerer's post and multiply both values by  √2

An object has an average acceleration of +6.18 m/s2 for 0.266 s . At the end of this time the object's velocity is +9.90 m/s .
Archy [21]

At the start of the 0.266 s, the object's speed was 8.26 m/s.

The question can only be talking about speed, not velocity.

An object of mass m = 5.0 kg hangs from a cord around a light pulley: The length of the cord between the oscillator and the pull
puteri [66]

Answer:

\mu=0.0049Kg/m

Explanation:

When a standing wave is formed with six loops means the normal mode of the wave is n=6, the frequency of the normal mode is given by the expression:

f_n=\frac{nv}{2L}

Where L is the length of the string and v the velocity of propagation. Use this expression to find the value of v.

f_6=\frac{6v}{2L}\\(150)=\frac{6v}{2(2)} \\150=\frac{3v}{2} \\3v=150(2)\\ v=\frac{300}{3} \\v=100m/s

The velocity of propagation is given by the expression:

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }

Where \mu is the desirable variable of the problem, the linear mass density, and T is the tension of the cord. The tension is equal to the weight of the mass hanging from the cord:

T=W=mg=(5)(9.81)=49.05N

With the value of the tension and the velocity you can find the mass density:

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}

v^2=\frac{T}{\mu}\\ \mu=\frac{T}{v^2} =\frac{49.05}{(100)^2} =\frac{49.05}{10000} =0.0049Kg/m

1. Indica cuáles son los reactivos y productos de la reacción química representada por la ecuación siguiente, y señala en que es
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Los reactivos, con su correspondiente estado de agregación, son:

  • Mg: estado sólido
  • HCl: estado acuoso

Los productos, con su correspondiente estado de agregación, son:

  • MgCl₂: estado acuoso
  • H₂: estado gaseoso

Explanation:

Una reacción química es un proceso por el cual una o más sustancias se transforman en otra u otras sustancias con propiedades diferentes. En otras palabras, las reacciones químicas son procesos en los que los átomos rompen sus enlaces químicos y forman otros nuevos, cambiando la naturaleza de las sustancias que intervienen.

En una ecuación química se representan dos términos. En el primero, el de la  derecha, se escriben los reactivos, expresados mediante sus fórmulas químicas  correspondientes y separados por un signo más. Por otro lado, el término de la izquierda, en  el que aparecen los productos, también representados por sus formulas químicas  correspondientes y con signos más entre ellos. Entre ambos términos suele ponerse  una flecha que indica que se ha producido la reacción química correspondiente.

Las sustancias que hay antes de producirse el cambio y que desaparecen se llaman reactivos. Las sustancias que hay después de producirse el cambio y que aparecen o se generan se llaman productos.

El estado de agregación en una reacción química se indica poniendo detrás del nombre o la fórmula de la sustancia y entre paréntesis la notación siguiente:

  • Sustancias sólidas (s)
  • Sustancias líquidas (l)
  • Sustancias gaseosas (g)
  • Sustancias disueltas en agua (aq)

En este caso tienes la reacción química:

Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) -> MgCl₂ (aq) + H₂ (g)

Entonces, <u><em>en este caso los reactivos, con su correspondiente estado de agregación, son:</em></u>

  • <u><em>Mg: estado sólido</em></u>
  • <u><em>HCl: estado acuoso</em></u>

<u><em>Por otro lado, los productos, con su correspondiente estado de agregación, son:</em></u>

  • <u><em>MgCl₂: estado acuoso</em></u>
  • <u><em>H₂: estado gaseoso</em></u>
