The period of a simple pendulum is given by T=2\pi \sqrt{ \frac{l}{g} }.

Here T is the period, l length of the pendulum and g acceleration due to gravity. When the pendulum runs 2 times faster, the period gets halved. That is

\frac{T}{2}=2\pi \sqrt{ \frac{\frac{l}{4}}{g} }. The new length of the pendulum is \frac{l}{4}.

That is the length of the pendulum decreases by a factor of 4.

Why are there so few working wave power stations?
Bond [772]
Well mostly because it's for oceans and lakes that have waves. so if you don't live near any of these, you wouldn't be getting power. <span />

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two identical ions that are separated by a distance of 5.0A is 3.7×10^-9N.a) wh
jeyben [28]

Explanation:

Given that,

Electrostatic force, F=3.7\times 10^{-9}\ N

Distance, r=5\ A=5\times 10^{-10}\ m

(a) F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}, q is the charge on the ion              

q=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}

q=\sqrt{\dfrac{3.7\times 10^{-9}\times (5\times 10^{-10})^2}{9\times 10^9}}      

q=3.2\times 10^{-19}\ C

(b) Let n is the number of electrons are missing from each ion. It can be calculated as :

n=\dfrac{q}{e}

n=\dfrac{3.2\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n = 2

Hence, this is the required solution.
