A pendulum consisting of a 0.5 kg mass tied to a 0.3 m string is set into oscillation at the same moment that a stone is dropped

from a 44.1-m-tall building. how many cycles of oscillation will the pendulum go through before the stone hits the ground?

Answer:

2.72 cycles

Explanation:

First of all, let's find the time that the stone takes to reaches the ground. The stone moves by uniform accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2, and it covers a distance of S=44.1 m, so the time taken is

S=\frac{1}{2}at^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(44.1m)}{9.8 m/s^2}}=3 s

The period of the pendulum instead is given by:

T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{0.3 m}{9.8 m/s^2}}=1.10 s

Therefore, the number of oscillations that the pendulum goes through before the stone hits the ground is given by the time the stone takes to hit the ground divided by the period of the pendulum:

N=\frac{t}{T}=\frac{3 s}{1.10 s}=2.72

Define work and power
Kamila [148]
WORK = W=Fd. Because energy is the capacity to do work , we measure energy and work in the same units (N*m or joules). POWER (P) is the rate of energy generation (or absorption) over time:P = E/t. Power's SI unit of measurement is the Watt, representing the generation or absorption of energy at the rate of 1 Joule/sec.

IE is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom. As atomic radius increases, the valence electrons get farther from
Bond [772]

Answer:

The bigger the atom the lesser the ability of the atom to hold on to its valence electrons.

Explanation:

Atomic radius can be looked at as the distance between the nucleus and the outermost energy level. As an atom gets bigger, the outer shell gets further and further from the positive nucleus. this means that electrons that are in the outer energy level become less held (attracted) by the nucleus because of distance and shielding of the attractive forces by the electrons in the lower energy levels. This means that as an atom becomes bigger, its ability to hold on to its outer electrons lessens.

Maggie is trying to find out if the amount of sugar in a liquid affects the amount of time it takes to freeze
A good hypothesis is: The more sugar in the drink the longer it takes to freeze
Conclusion= she concludes that her hypothesis is correct as the unsweetened tea froze the fastest while the root beer took the longest time as it contained the most sugar
