Answer:

Length of the Pendulum is 14.4 cm

Explanation:

Time period of simple pendulum is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} } \\$

time taken for one oscillation is

$T=\frac{time taken}{oscillations} \\T=\frac{8.75}{15} \\T=0.583 s$

Pendulum length on the earth surface is

$L=\frac{T^2g}{4\pi^2 }\\L=\frac{0.583\times 9.8}{4\pi^2 } \\L=0.144 m$

Length of the Pendulum is 14.4 cm

Which situation describes the highest rate of power?

Darya [45]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) A machine does 400 joules of work in 5 seconds.

Explanation :

Power : It is defined a the rate of doing work per unit time.

Formula used :

$P=\frac{w}{t}$

where,

P = power

w = work done

t = time

Now we have to determine the rate of power for the following options.

(A) A machine does 200 joules of work in 10 seconds.

$P=\frac{200}{10}=20W$

(B) A machine does 400 joules of work in 10 seconds.

$P=\frac{400}{10}=40W$

(C) A machine does 200 joules of work in 5 seconds.

$P=\frac{200}{5}=40W$

(D) A machine does 400 joules of work in 5 seconds.

$P=\frac{400}{5}=80W$

From this we conclude that, a machine does 400 joules of work in 5 seconds has the highest rate of power.

Hence, the correct option is, (D)

1. explain why mid-sized cars and SUVs have different rollover fatality rates.

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

1. They generally have poorer fuel efficiency and require more resources to manufacture than smaller vehicles, thus contributing more to climate change and environmental degradation. Their higher center of gravity increases their risk of rollovers.

2. Mid-sized cars and SUVs both have a fixed object fatality rate of 2.6/BVM. This is most likely because they have a similar mass and inertia. The force of the crash is likely to have about the same deceleration in both vehicles.

A seagull flies at a velocity of 9.00 m/s straight into the wind. (a) if it takes the bird 20.0 min to travel 6.00 km relative t

enot [183]

Here we will the speed of seagull which is v = 9 m/s

this is the speed of seagull when there is no effect of wind on it

now in part a)

if effect of wind is in opposite direction then it travels 6 km in 20 min

so the average speed is given by the ratio of total distance and total time

$v_{avg} = \frac{6000}{20*60}$

$v_{avg} = 5m/s$

now since effect of wind is in opposite direction then we can say

$V_{net} = v_{bird} - v_{wind}$

$5 = 9 - v_{wind}$

$v_{wind}= 4 m/s$

Part b)

now if bird travels in the same direction of wind then we will have

$v_{net}= v_{bird} + v_{wind}$

$v_{net} = 9 + 4 = 13 m/s$

now we can find the time to go back

$time = \frac{distance}{speed}$

$time = \frac{6000}{13}$

$time = 7.7 minutes$

Part c)

Total time of round trip when wind is present

$T = t_1 + t_2$

$T = 20 + 7.7 = 27.7 min$

now when there is no wind total time is given by

$T = \frac{6000}{9} + \frac{6000}{9}$

$T = 22.22 min$

So due to wind time will be more
