We apply the following equation

T = 2π * sqrt (L/g)

Where g is the gravity = 9.8 m/s^2

L is the longitude of the pendulum (Height of the tower)

T is the period. (T = 18s)

We find L.............> (T /2π)^2 = L/g

L = g*(T /2π)^2...........> L = 80.428 meters

An object is dropped from a platform100 ft high. Ignoring wind resistance, what will its speed be when it reaches the ground?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

80 ft/s

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 100 ft

v₀ = 0 ft/s

a = 32.2 ft/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (0 ft/s)² + 2 (32.2 ft/s²) (100 ft)

v = 80.2 ft/s

Rounded, the speed when it reaches the ground is 80 ft/s.
