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

"a grindstone of radius 4.0 m is initially spinning with an angular speed of 8.0 rad/s. the angular speed is then increased to 1

kotegsom [21]

The average angular speed of the grindstone is 10 rad/s

$\texttt{ }$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<em>Let's recall </em><em>Angular Speed</em><em> formula as follows:</em>

$\boxed{ \omega = \omega_o + \alpha t }$

$\boxed{ \theta = \omega_o t + \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2 }$

$\boxed{ \omega^2 = \omega_o^2 + 2 \alpha \theta }$

$\boxed{ \theta = \frac{( \omega + \omega_o )}{2} t }$

<em>where :</em>

<em>ω = final angular speed ( rad/s )</em>

<em>ω₀ = initial angular speed ( rad/s )</em>

<em>α = angular acceleration ( rad/s² )</em>

<em>t = elapsed time ( s )</em>

<em>θ = angular displacement ( rad )</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<u>Given:</u>

radius of the grindstone = R = 4.0 m

initial angular speed = ω₀ = 8.0 rad/s

final angular speed = ω = 12 rad/s

elapsed time = t = 4.0 seconds

<u>Asked:</u>

average angular speed = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>Firstly , we will calculate </em><em>angular displacement </em><em>as follows:</em>

$\theta = \frac{( \omega + \omega_o )}{2} t$

$\theta = \frac{ ( 12 + 8.0 ) }{2} \times 4.0$

$\theta = 10 \times 4.0$

$\boxed {\theta = 40 \texttt{ rad}}$

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Next , we could calculate the </em><em>average angular speed</em><em> as follows:</em>

$\texttt{average angular speed} = \theta \div t$

$\texttt{average angular speed} = 40 \div 4.0$

$\boxed{\texttt{average angular speed} = 10 \texttt{ rad/s}}$

Calculate the temperature of the air mass when it has risen to a level at which atmospheric pressure is only 8.00×104 Pa . Assum

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

$T_{2}=278.80 K$

Explanation:

Let's use the equation that relate the temperatures and volumes of an adiabatic process in a ideal gas.

$(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$ .

Now, let's use the ideal gas equation to the initial and the final state:

$\frac{p_{1} V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{p_{2} V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Let's recall that the term nR is a constant. That is why we can match these equations.

We can find a relation between the volumes of the initial and the final state.

$\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}=\frac{T_{1}p_{2}}{T_{2}p_{1}}$

Combining this equation with the first equation we have:

$(\frac{T_{1}p_{2}}{T_{2}p_{1}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$

$(\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}^{\gamma}}{T_{1}^{\gamma}}$

Now, we just need to solve this equation for T₂.

$T_{1}\cdot (\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}})^{\frac{\gamma - 1}{\gamma}} = T_{2}$

Let's assume the initial temperature and pressure as 25 °C = 298 K and 1 atm = 1.01 * 10⁵ Pa, in a normal conditions.

Here,

$p_{2}=8.00\cdot 10^{4} Pa \\p_{1}=1.01\cdot 10^{5} Pa\\ T_{1}=298 K\\ \gamma=1.40$

Finally, T2 will be:

$T_{2}=278.80 K$
