Before swinging, T has only potential energy, (no speed)
Ui = mgh
Where h is the vertical displacement of T
From the laws of geometry,
cos45 = (L-h)/L
cos45 = 1-h/L
h/L = 1-cos45
h = L(1-cos45)

Therefore
Ui = mgL(1-cos45)

Proceeding the same way,
Twill raise to aheight of h' due to swing
h' = L(1-cos30)
The PE of T after swing is
Uf = mgh'
Uf = mgL(1-cos30)

Along with the PE , T has some kinetic energy results due to the moment.
Tf = 0.5*mv^2

According to the law of conservation of energy,
Ui = Uf+Tf
mgL(1-cos45) = mgL(1-cos30) + 0.5*mv^2
gL(co30-cos45) = 0.5*v^2
9.8*20*(co30-cos45) = 0.5*V^2
v = 7.89 m/s

<span>The speed f T after swing is 7.89 m/s</span>

If a closed series circuit has a voltage of 12 V and R1 = 4 Ω and R2 = 2 Ω, what is the current running through R1 and R2?
Phantasy [73]
Total resistance=R1+ R2= 6Ω
Voltage=12v
Current =\frac{voltage}{resistance}
Current= 2A
In a series circuit, equal current passes through every resistance.

Two parallel metal plates are at a distance of 8.00 m apart.The electric field between the plates is uniform directed towards th
yuradex [85]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Formula E=F/C also E=V/d

In this case use the second formula; E=V/d

Data given; E=4N/C d=8m

So v=E X d

     V=4x8=32V

k.e=eV= 2X32=64eV

Pls help :(( I need help!! Its physics! motion and forces!
Delvig [45]

Answer: Pedaling your bike : acceleration :: applying the brakes : inertia.

The reason I think this to be the answer to the analogy is because there is energy and work used in both processes (and the unit focuses on forces); gravity is constant and does not change whether one pedals or applies brakes. And I do not think it's deceleration, as deceleration tends to equate to acceleration within the physics perspective.

Edit: I should also add that since you clarified that your unit is motion and forces, Newtons 1st law is the law of inertia. The way to change an objects motion for it to slow down is by applying an additional force. That resistance the bike experiences to slow is the process of inertia. Inertia happens in order to accelerate an object (either by slowing it down, or speeding it up): i.e., the resistance to change.
