Answer: To increase the rigidity of the system you could hold the ruler at its midpoint so that the part of the ruler that oscillates is half as long as in the original experiment.
Explanation:
When a rule is displaced from its vertical position, it oscillates back and forth because of the restoring force opposing the displacement. That is, when the rule is on the left there is a force to the right.
By holding a ruler with one hand and deforming it with the other a force is generated in the opposite direction which is known as the restoring force. The restoring force causes the ruler to move back toward its stable equilibrium position, where the net force on it is zero. The momentum gained causes the ruler to move to the right leading to opposite deformation. This moves the ruler again to the left. The whole process is repeated until dissipative forces reduce the motion causing the ruler to come to rest.
The relationship between restoring force and displacement was described by Hooke's law. This states that displacement or deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force applied.
F= -kx, where,
F= restoring force
x= displacement or deformation
k= constant related to the rigidity of the system.
Therefore, the larger the force constant, the greater the restoring force, and the stiffer the system.
Explanation:
If you want to get speed, u have to divided distance over time
The lowest speed will lose
Answer: a) 11.76 m/s b) 7.056 m
Explanation:
The described situation is as follows:
An object is dropped from the top of a tower and when measuring the time it takes to reach the ground that turns out to be 0.02 minutes.
This situation is related to free fall, this also means we have constant acceleration, hence the equations we will use are:
(1)
(2)
Where:
Is the final velocity of the object
Is the initial velocity of the object (it was dropped)
is the acceleration due gravity
is the height of the tower
is the time it takes to the object to reach the ground
b) Begining with (1):
(3)
(4)
(5) This is the final velocity of the object
a) Substituting (5) in (2):
(6)
Clearing
:
(7)
(8) This is the height of the tower
Let's start with an infinitive: it has a form "to..." - only sentences C and D have a phrase like this, so we can exclude other options.
Among those, C does not have a gerund, which is a verbal form: "dreaming" has a function of a noun there.
So the correct answer is the remaining one, D.
(39 m/s / 917) x 1000 = 42.5m/s
