On a warm, balmy summer day you decide to relax by watching the latest building renovation in your neighborhood. You notice that

a very heavy wrecking ball is attached to a much lighter chain and is dangling from a crane and swinging back and forth. As long as it does not swing too high the time it takes the wrecking ball to complete one full oscillation will be independent of A) the weight of the ball, but not the amplitude of the motion.B) both the amplitude of the motion and the weight of the ball.C) both the length of the chain supporting the ball and the amplitude of the motion.D) the amplitude of the motion, but not the weight of the ball.

Answer:

B) both the amplitude of the motion and the weight of the ball

Explanation:

Time period of a pendulum is given by

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

where,

L = Length of pendulum

g = Acceleration due to gravity

The system here is similar to a simple pendulum

It can be seen that the time period depends on L and g.

Amplitude and weight are the factors that do not determine the time period.

Hence, the answer is B) both the amplitude of the motion and the weight of the ball

How does the Coriolis effect influence the direction of the Trade Winds in the Northern Hemisphere? Does it have the same effect
scoray [572]

Answer:

Part A

Coriolis effect is used to describe how objects which are not fixed to the ground are deflected as they travel over long distances due to the rotation of the Earth relative to the 'linear' motion of the objects

Due to the Coriolis effect the wind flowing towards the Equator from high pressure belts in the subtropical regions in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are deflected towards the western direction because the Earth rotates on its axis towards the east

Part B

In the Northern Hemispheres, the winds are known as northeasterly trade winds and in the Southern Hemisphere, they are known as the southeasterly trade wind. Therefore, Coriolis effect has the same effect on the direction of the Trade Winds in the Southern Hemisphere as it does in the Northern Hemisphere

If a fisherman applies a horizontal force with magnitude 47.0 NN to the box and produces an acceleration of magnitude 3.20 m/s2m
musickatia [10]

Answer:

The correct solution is "14.6875 kg".

Explanation:

Given values:

Force,

F = 47.0 N

Acceleration,

a = 3.20 m/s²

Now,

⇒ Force=Mass\times Acceleration

or,

⇒       F=ma

⇒    47.0=m\times 3.20

⇒       m=\frac{47.0}{3.20}

⇒           =14.6875 \ kg

A car travels in a straight line covering a total distance of 90.0 miles in 60.0 minutes. Which one of the following statements
andrezito [222]

Answer:

E) The average velocity of the car is 90.0 miles per hour in the direction of motion.

Explanation:

Given;

distance covered by the car, d = 90 miles

time taken, t = 60 minutes = 1 hour

The average velocity of the car is given by change in displacement per change in time;

V = Δd / Δt

V = \frac{x_f - x_o}{t_f -t_o} = \frac{90-0}{1-0} \\\\V = 90 \ miles/hour

Therefore, the average velocity of the car is 90.0 miles per hour in the direction of motion.

Below, the two-way table is given for a class of students. Freshmen Sophomore Juniors Seniors Total Male 4 6 2 2 Female 3 4 6 3
julsineya [31]

The required probability is 3/4.We have to compute the probability

P(Female |Junior) because we have to find the probability of the female student and the given condition is that the student is junior.

Determine the total number of juniors.Juniors=2+6=8

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 indicates the impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty.

Since the number of females who are junior is 6, determine the required probability.

P(Female|Junior)=6/8=3/4

Therefore, the required probability is 3/4.
