Setler [38]

Answer:

Slow

Explanation:

As we know that the time period of simple pendulum is given by

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

Where, l be the effective length of the pendulum and g be the acceleration due to gravity

As the length of the pendulum increase, then the tie period of the pendulum will also increase.

It means the clock run slow.

What is the velocity of an object that has a momentum of 4,000 kg-m/s and a mass of 115 kg? Round to the nearest hundredth.
julia-pushkina [17]
<h2>Answer: 34.78 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The momentum p is given by the following equation:

p=m.V   (1)

Where:

m is the mass of the object

V is the velocity of the object

Finding the velocity from (1):

V=\frac{p}{m}   (2)

V=\frac{4000kg.m/s}{115kg}  

<u>Finally:</u>

V=34.78m/s >>>This is the velocity of the object
