A swinging pendulum has a total energy of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_i" id="TexFormula1" title="E_i" alt="E_i" align="a

Zolol [24]

Answer:

$\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta}$ (for small oscillations)

Explanation:

The total energy of the pendulum is equal to:

$E_{1} = m\cdot g \cdot (1-\cos \theta)\cdot L$

For small oscillations, the equation can be re-arranged into the following form:

$E_{1} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-\theta) \cdot L$

Where:

$\theta = \frac{A}{L^{2}}$ , measured in radians.

If the amplitude of pendulum oscillations is increase by a factor of 4, the angle of oscillation is $4\theta$ and the total energy of the pendulum is:

$E_{2} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-4\theta)\cdot L$

The factor of change is:

$\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx \frac{1 - 4\theta}{1-\theta}$

$\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta}$

What happens to a current when the electric field in the wire increase

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

If the voltage is increased then the electric field is higher, and electron velocity (average) is proportional to this field. Then you have an increase in speed. And current is total charge passing per time unit, so current is proportional to velocity value of charge (and to voltage in resistors and wire).

Two satellites are orbiting earth at different altitudes. Which satellite orbits at a higher speed v around earth? Assume that t

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

a) the one with a lower orbit b) the one with a higher orbit

Explanation:

Let's consider orbital mechanics. To get an object in orbit, we need it to fall to earth parallel to the earth's surface. To understand it easily imagine a projectile thrown horizontally further and further away, at one point, the projectile hits the cannon from behind. Considering there is no wind resistance, that would be a projecile in orbit.

In other words, the circular orbits of some objects around a massive body are due to the equality between centrifugal acceleration and gravity acceleration.

$\frac{v^2}{r} = \frac{GM}{r^2}$ .

so the velocity is

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r} }$

where "G" is the gravitational constant, "M" the mass of the massive body and "r" the distance between the object and the center of gravity of mass M. As you can note, if "r" increase, "v" decrease.

The orbital period of any object in orbit is

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{a^3}{GM} }$

where "a" is length of semi-major axis (a = r in circular orbits). So if "r" increase, "T" increase.
