We need to use the equation for potencial energy

Ep= mgh

now we have to replace with the values we have

Ep=(14m)(9.81m/s²)(0.01kg)

Ep= 1.3734 Joules

A simple pendulum consists of a mass m (the "bob") hanging on the end of a thin string of length l and negligible mass. The bob
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The pendulum frequency  is (c) the same, or very close to it

Explanation:

The simple pendulum corresponds to a simple harmonic movement, to reach this approximation in the expression of the force the sine of the angle (θ) approaches an angle value, this is only true for small angles, generally less than 15º

Sine (15th) = 0.2588

The angle in radians is 15º π / 180º = 0.26180.2588 / 0.2618

The difference between these two values ​​is less than 1.2%

for smaller angle the difference is reduced more

Therefore, the period for both the 5º and 10º angles is almost the same

Which of the objects below has the greatest acceleration? *
lesya692 [45]

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow F=ma

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow a=\dfrac{F}{m}

Now

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow a\propto\dfrac{1}{m}

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow a\propto F

  • Lower mass=Higher acceleration
  • Lower Force=Lower Acceleration

Option B has lowest mass and highest force hence its correct
