Answer:
0.087 m
Explanation:
Length of the rod, L = 1.5 m
Let the mass of the rod is m and d is the distance between the pivot point and the centre of mass.
time period, T = 3 s
the formula for the time period of the pendulum is given by
.... (1)
where, I is the moment of inertia of the rod about the pivot point and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
Moment of inertia of the rod about the centre of mass, Ic = mL²/12
By using the parallel axis theorem, the moment of inertia of the rod about the pivot is
I = Ic + md²
Substituting the values in equation (1)
12d² -26.84 d + 2.25 = 0
d = 2.15 m , 0.087 m
d cannot be more than L/2, so the value of d is 0.087 m.
Thus, the distance between the pivot and the centre of mass of the rod is 0.087 m.
I think it 32, but i’m not sure
Answer:
Explanation:
λ = wave length = 632 x 10⁻⁹
slit width a = 2 x 10⁻³ m
angular separation of central maxima
= 2 x λ /a
= 2 x 632 x 10⁻⁹ / 2 x 10⁻³
= 632 x 10⁻⁶ rad
width in m of light spot.
= 632 x 10⁻⁶ x 376000 km
= 237.632 km
The fatal current is 51 mA = 0.051 Ampere.
The resistance is 2,050Ω .
Voltage = (current) x (resistance)
= (0.051 Ampere) x (2,050 Ω) = 104.6 volts .
==================
This is what the arithmetic says IF the information in the question
is correct.
I don't know how true this is, and I certainly don't plan to test it,
but I have read that a current as small as 15 mA through the
heart can be fatal, not 51 mA .
If 15 mA can do it, and the sweaty electrician's resistance is
really 2,050 Ω, then the fatal voltage could be as little as 31 volts !
The voltage at the wall-outlets in your house is 120 volts in the USA !
THAT's why you don't want to stick paper clips or a screwdriver into
outlets, and why you want to cover unused outlets with plastic plugs
if there are babies crawling around.
