Measuring current. A device called an ammeter is used to measure current. Some types of ammeter have a pointer on a dial, but most have a digital readout. To measure the current flowing through a component in a circuit, you must connect the ammeter in series with it.

How can i prove the conservation of mechanical energy?

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

We can also prove the conservation of mechanical energy of a freely falling body by the work-energy theorem, which states that change in kinetic energy of a body is equal to work done on it. i.e. W=ΔK. And ΔE=ΔK+ΔU. Hence the mechanical energy of the body is conserved

ow long must a simple pendulum be if it is to make exactly ten swings per second? (That is, one complete vibration takes exactly

Igoryamba

The period T of a pendulum is given by:
$T=2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }$
where L is the length of the pendulum while $g=9.81 m/s^2$ is the gravitational acceleration.

In the pendulum of the problem, one complete vibration takes exactly 0.200 s, this means its period is $T=0.200 s$ . Using this data, we can solve the previous formula to find L:
$L=g ( \frac{T}{2\pi} )^2=(9.81 m/s^2)( \frac{0.2 s}{2 \pi} )^2=1 \cdot 10^{-3} m=1 mm$

How does an ice cube melt when you hold it in your hand?

dezoksy [38]

The heat from your hand causes the ice molecules to heat up and become more active. This lowers the stability of the ice cube compound causing it to melt.
