The period of a pendulum is given by
T=2 \pi  \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }
where L is the pendulum length and g is the gravitational acceleration.

We can write down the ratio between the period of the pendulum on the Moon and on Earth by using this formula, and we find:
\frac{T_m}{T_e} =  \frac{2 \pi  \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g_m} } }{2 \pi  \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g_e} } }=    \sqrt{ \frac{g_e}{g_m} }
where the labels m and e refer to "Moon" and "Earth".

Since the gravitational acceleration on Earth is g_e = 9.81 m/s^2 while on the Moon is g_m=1.63 m/s^2, the ratio between the period on the Moon and on Earth is
\frac{T_m}{T_e}= \sqrt{ \frac{g_e}{g_m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{9.81 m/s^2}{1.63 m/s^2} }=2.45

A uniform electric field is directed parallel to the +y axis. If a positive test charge begins at the origin and moves upward al
lukranit [14]

Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y

Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below

V = kq/y

Where k = 1/4πε0

Where V = electric potential,

k = electric constant = 9×10^9,

y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space

q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c

From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.

We have that

V = k/y

We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).

This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.

This fact makes option 1 the correct answer

Consider a 20 cm thick granite wall with a thermal conductivity of 2.79 W/m·K. The temperature of the left surface is held const
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The right wall surface temperature and heat flux through the wall is 35.5°C and 202.3W/m²

Explanation:

Thickness of the wall is  L=  20cm = 0.2m

Thermal conductivity of the wall is  K = 2.79 W/m·K

Temperature at the left side surface is T₁ =  50°C

Temperature of the air is T = 22°C

Convection heat transfer coefficient is  h = 15 W/m2·K

Heat conduction process through wall is equal to the heat convection process so

Q_{conduction} = Q_{convection}

Expression for the heat conduction process is

Q_{conduction} = \frac{K(T_1 - T)}{L}

Expression for the heat convection process is

Q_{convection} = h(T_2 - T)

Substitute the expressions of conduction and convection in equation above

Q_{conduction} = Q_{convection}

\frac{K(T_1 - T_2)}{L} = h(T_2 - T)

Substitute the values in above equation

\frac{2.79(50- T_2)}{0.2} = 15(T_2 - 22)\\\\T_2 = 35.5^\circC

Now heat flux through the wall can be calculated as

q_{flux} = Q_{conduction} \\\\q_{flux}  = \frac{K(T_1 - T_2)}{L}\\\\q_{flux}  = \frac{2.79(50 - 35.5)}{0.2}\\\\q_{flux} = 202.3W/m^2

Thus, the right wall surface temperature and heat flux through the wall is 35.5°C and 202.3W/m²
