The period of the pendulum is given by the following equation

T = 2π * sqrt (L/g)

Where g is the gravity (free fall acceleration)

L is the longitude of the pendulum

T is the period.

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

g = L/(T /2π)^2...........> g = 22.657 m/s^2

A projectile is fired with an initial velocity of 120.0 meters per second at an angle, θ above the horizontal. If the projectile
k0ka [10]

Answer:

θ = 62.72°

Explanation:

The projectile describes a parabolic path:

The parabolic movement results from the composition of a uniform rectilinear motion (horizontal ) and a uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion of upward or downward motion (vertical ).

The equation of uniform rectilinear motion (horizontal ) for the x axis is :

x = x₀+ vx*t   Formula (1)

vx = v₀x

Where:  

x: horizontal position in meters (m)

x₀: initial horizontal position in meters (m)

t : time (s)

vx: horizontal velocity  in m/s

v₀x: Initial speed in x  in m/s

The equations of uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion of upward (vertical ) for the y axis  are:

y= y₀+(v₀y)*t - (1/2)*g*t² Formula (2)

vfy= v₀y -gt Formula (3)

Where:  

y: vertical position in meters (m)  

y₀ : initial vertical position in meters (m)  

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀y: initial  vertical velocity  in m/s  

vfy: final  vertical velocity  in m/s  

g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

Data

v₀ = 120 m/s  , at an angle  θ above the horizontal

v₀x= 55 m/s

x-y components of the initial  velocity ( v₀)

v₀x = v₀*cosθ Equation (1)

v₀y = v₀*sinθ   Equation (2)

Calculating of the angle θ

We replace data in the  Equation (1)

55 =  120*cosθ

cosθ = 55 / 120

\theta = cos^{-1}(  \frac{55}{120} )

θ = 62.72°

A wheel is used to turn a valve stem on a water valve. How much is the mechanical advantage when an effort of 80 lbs. is applied
Ann [662]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Effort (E) = 80 lbs

Load (L) = 320 lbs

Mechanical advantage (MA) =?

Mechanical advantage is simply defined as the ratio of load to effort. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Mechanical advantage = Load / Effort

MA = L / E

With the above formula, we can obtain the mechanical advantage as illustrated below:

Effort (E) = 80 lbs

Load (L) = 320 lbs

Mechanical advantage (MA) =?

MA = L / E

MA = 320 / 80

MA = 4

Thus, the mechanical advantage is 4

What is the velocity of a narwhal that swims 76 kilometers North in 3 hours
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

<h3>25km/hr</h3>

Explanation:

Velocity is the change in displacement of a body with respect to time.

Velocity - Displacement/time

Given

displacement = 76km

Time = 3hours

Substitute the given parameters into the formula;

Velocity = 75km/3hrs

Velocity = 25km/hr

Hence the velocity of the narwhal is 25km/hr
