The duck at 12m/s has a greater speed than the heron which travels at 10m/s

Answer:

The speed of duck is greater than the speed of heron.

Explanation:

Speed(S)=\frac{Distance(D)}{Time(T)}

Speed of heron : S

Distance covered by herons in 60 seconds = 600 m

D = 600 m . T = 60 seconds

S=\frac{600 m}{60 s}=10 m/s

Speed of duck : S'

Distance covered by herons in 5 seconds = 60 m

D' = 60 m . T' = 5 seconds

S'=\frac{60 m}{5 s}=12 m/s

12 m/s > 10 m/s

S' > S

The speed of duck is greater than the speed of heron.

What is the period of a simple pendulum 47 cm long (a) on the Earth, and ( b) when it is in a freely falling elevator?
Liula [17]

Answer:

a)1.37 s

b)∞ ( Infinite)

Explanation:

Given that

L= 47 cm              ( 1 m =100 cm)

L= 0.47 m

a)

On the earth :

Acceleration due to gravity = g

We know that time period of the simple pendulum given as

T=2\pi\sqrt{ \dfrac{L}{g_{{eff}}}

Here

g_{eff}= g

Now by putting the values

T=2\pi \times\sqrt{ \dfrac{0.47}{9.81}}

T=1.37 s

b)

Free falling elevator :

When elevator is falling freely then

g_{eff}= 0            ( This is case of weightless motion)

Therefore

T=2\pi\sqrt{ \dfrac{L}{0}

T=∞  (Infinite)

For this problem, we assume that we are on planet-i. the radius of this planet is r =4200 km, the gravitational acceleration at
Minchanka [31]
The expression commonly used for potential gravitational energy is just simplification. It is actually just the first term in Taylor expansion of the real expression. 
In general, the potential energy of gravitational field is defined as:
U=-G \frac{mM}{r}
Where G is universal gravitational constant, and r is the distance between the objects centers of mass. Negative sign represents the bound state.
Since we are not given the mass of the planet we have to calculate it.
F_g=G\frac{mM}{r_p^2}\\ mg=G\frac{mM}{r_p^2}\\ g=G\frac{M}{r_p^2}
This formula can be used for any planet. It gives you the gravitational acceleration on the planet's surface. We can use it to calculate the planet's mass:
g=G\frac{M}{r_p^2}\\ M=\frac{gr_p^2}{G}=2.41\cdot 10^{24}kg
Now we can calculate the potential energy of that cannonball when it reaches its maximum height.
U=-G \frac{mM}{r}\\ U=-G \frac{mM}{r_p+h}
When we plug in the numbers we get:
U=-4.99\cdot 10^{10} J
The potential energy has to be equal to the kinetic energy.
E_k=4.99\cdot 10^{10} J
