you have two pendulums with cords that are exactly the same length. one is on earth (with an acceleration due to gravity of 9.81

meters/second2) and the other one is on the moon (with an acceleration due to gravity of 1.63 meters/second2). which one will have a longer period?

From T = 2π√(l/g).

Since the lengths are the same, so that is a constant.

T α 1/√g

So the period T is inversely proportional to the square root of gravity g.

So the one with a bigger gravity g would have a shorter period

and

the one with smaller gravity g would have a longer period.

Therefore the period on the Moon with gravity of 1.63 m/s² would be longer period than that on the Earth with gravity of 9.81 m/s²

A baseball is hit at ground level. The ball reaches its maximum height above ground level 3.0 s after being hit. Then 2.5 s afte

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Part a)

$H = 44.1 m$

Part b)

$y = 13.48 m$

Part c)

$d = 8.86 m$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that ball will reach at maximum height at

t = 3 s

now we will have

$t = \frac{v sin\theta}{g}$

now we have

$3 = \frac{vsin\theta}{9.8}$

$v sin\theta = 29.4 m/s$

Now maximum height above ground is given as

$H = \frac{v^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

$H = \frac{29.4^2}{2(9.8)}$

$H = 44.1 m$

Part b)

Height of the fence is given as

$y = (vsin\theta) t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$y = (29.4)(5.5) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(5.5^2)$

$y = 13.48 m$

Part c)

As we know that its horizontal distance moved by the ball in 5.5 s is given as

$x = v_x t$

$97.5 = v_x (5.5)$

$v_x = 17.72 m/s$

now total time of flight is given as

$T = 3 + 3 = 6 s$

so range is given as

$R = v_x T$

$R = (17.72)(6)$

$R = 106.4 m$

so the distance from the fence is given as

$d = 106.4 - 97.5$

$d = 8.86 m$

4. If you swing wide to the left before turning right, another driver may try to pass you on the right. True or False

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Don't turn wide to the left as you start the turn. A driver behind may think you are turning left and try to pass you on the right. You may crash into the other vehicle as you complete your turn.

Instead, slowly give yourself and others more time to avoid problems, keep the rear of the vehicle close to the curb. This will stop other drivers from passing you on the right. This is called (button Hook)

If you are driving a truck or bus that cannot make the right turn without swinging into the other lane, turn wide as you complete the turn.

Kiera, a 330 N girl, steps in water that someone spilt on the floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction between Kiera and the f

shutvik [7]

Answer:

<em>The force of kinetic friction between Kiera and the floor is 9.24 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Friction Force</u>

When an object is moving and encounters friction in rough surfaces, it loses acceleration and/or velocity because the friction force opposes motion.

The friction force when an object is moving on a horizontal surface is calculated by:

$Fr=\mu N$

Where μ is the coefficient of static or kinetics friction and N is the normal force.

If no forces other then the weight and the normal are acting upon the y-direction, then the weight and the normal are equal in magnitude:

N = W

Thus, the friction force is:

$Fr=\mu W$

Kiera, the W=330 N girl steps in water that has a coefficient of friction of μ=0.028 with the floor.

The kinetic friction force is:

Fr = 0.028*330

Fr = 9.24 N

The force of kinetic friction between Kiera and the floor is 9.24 N
