A. A PH202 student lives next to a construction site and sees a crane with a wrecking ball demolish the building next door. The

wrecking ball swings along the wall between her house and the neighbor’s house. In an effort to determine the length of the cable on the wrecking ball the student builds a pendulum using a random rock and a string. Her pendulum turns out to be 0.500m long. While she plays with her pendulum she realizes that the wrecking ball swings back and forth in the same amount of time that it takes the rock to complete 5 full oscillations. What is the length of the cable on the wrecking ball?

Answer:

The length of cable is 12.5 m

Explanation:

Since, the wrecking ball completes 1 oscillation, in the same time, as it takes for the rock to complete 5 oscillations.

Therefore,

Time Period of Wrecking Ball = 5 (Time Period of Rock)

Since,

Time Period of  Pendulum = 2π√(L/g)

Therefore,

2π√(L₁/g) = 5[2π√(L₂/g)]

√L₁ = 5√L₂

Squaring on both sides:

L₁ = 25 L₂

where,

L₁ = Length of Cable = ?

L₂ = Length of string = 0.5 m

Therefore,

L₁ = 25 (0.5 m)

<u>L₁ = 12.5 m</u>

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

t=1.9 sec

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height h=28m

Time t=3s

Generally the Newton's equation for Initial velocity upward is mathematically given by

 s=ut+\frtac{1}{2}at^2

 28=3u-\frac{1}{2}*9.8*3^2

 u=24.03m/s

Generally the velocity at  elevation and depression occurs  as ball arrives and passes through S=28

 v=\sqrt{24.03-2*9.8*28}

 v=5.35m/s and -5.35m/s

Generally the Newton's equation for time to reach initial velocity  is mathematically given by

 v=u+at

 5.35=24.03-9.8t

 t=\frac{28.03-5.35}{9.8}

 t=1.9 sec

Answer:

magnitude of gravitational force between the Earth and the Sun at B is greater than that at A

Explanation:

Formula of gravitational force:

F = GMm/r^2

(r is the distance between 2 objects)

We see that r(B) < r(A) since at B, the Earth is closer to the Sun than at A

According to the Formula, the smaller r is, the greater F is

So, F(B) > F(A)

Two radio antennas A and B radiate in phase. Antenna B is a distance of 120 m to the right of antenna A. Consider point Q along
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

240 m

120 m

Explanation:

d = Path difference = 120 m

For destructive interference

Path difference

d=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2d\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2\times 120\\\Rightarrow \lambda=240\ m

The longest wavelength is 240 m

For constructive interference

d=\lambda\\\Rightarrow 120\ m=\lambda

The longest wavelength is 120 m
