A pendulum takes .5 seconds tp complete one cycle. what is the pendulum"s period and frequency?

1 answer:

5 0

You just told us how long the pendulum takes to complete one cycle. That's the definition of the period. Its 1/2 second.

The frequency is the reciprocal of the period. That's 2 per second. Or 2 Hz.

Most reactive non-metals in order?

kompoz [17]

Nonmetals often share or gain electrons. The nonmetals in the periodic table increases as you move to the right and decreases as you go down. This is because, the smaller the atom, the reactive it gets due to less electron attached to the orbits of the atom. The reactivity of nonmetals is arranged in decreasing order. 
Carbon
 Nitrogen
Oxygen
Fluorine
Phosphorus 
Sulfur
Chlorine 
Selenium 
Bromine 
Iodine

What is the relationship between temperature and altitude in the stratosphere? (2 points).

stealth61 [152]

As altitude increases, temperature increases. The stratosphere is the part of the atmosphere that starts in the tropopause and ends in the estratopause. In the troposphere, the air is close to the Earth surface. The air surface can absorb more sunlight energy than the air, so the Earth surface heats the air. As you go higher, the distance to the Earth surface is higher, so the temperature is lower. The troposphere ends in the tropopause, where this trend changes. In the estratopause, there is a lot of ozone, which absorbs the dangerous UV radiation and converts into heat. That heat warms the air. So the air which is close to the estratopause is warm because of the heat released by the ozone reactions. The tropopause is far from the Earth surface and far from the ozone layer, that’s why it is cold. So the tropopause is cold and the estratopause is warm, which means: the air becomes warmer as you rise above the tropopause until you get to the estratopause.

A boy throws a baseball onto a roof and it rolls back down and off the roof with a speed of 3.75 m/s. If the roof is pitched at

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

a) t = 0.528 s

b) D = 1.62 m

Explanation:

given,

speed of the baseball = 3.75 m/s

angle made with the horizontal = 35°

height of the roof edge = 2.5 m

using equation of motion

$s = ut +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$2.5 = vsin\theta \ t +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$2.5 = 3.75\ sin35^0 \ t +\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 t^2$

4.9 t² + 2.15 t - 2.5 = 0

on solving the above equation

t = 0.528 s

b) D = v cos θ × t

D = 3.75 × cos 35° ×0.528

D = 1.62 m

Airida [17]

Answer:

c. in the absence of an unbalanced force, an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion.

Explanation:

First law: things keep doing what they are doing, unless force is applied.

In a certain process, the energy of the system decreases by 250 kJ. The process involves 480 kJ of work done on the system. Find

gregori [183]

Answer:

Q = - 730 KJ

730 KJ is transferred out of the system

Explanation:

According to the first law of thermodynamics, energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be transformed from one form to another.

For a particular process/system, the first law is interpreted as

ΔU = Q + W (depending on convention, some textbooks give this relation as ΔU = Q - W)

ΔU is the change in internal energy of the system, in my convention, it is positive if the internal energy increases and negative otherwise.

Q = Heat transferred into or out of the system. Q is positive for heat transferred into the system and negative for heat transferred out of the system.

W = workdone by the system or work done on the system. W is positive for workdone on the system and W is negative for when work is done by the system.

ΔU decreases by 250 KJ, that is, ΔU = - 250 KJ

Q = ?

W = 480 KJ (Work is done on the system)

- 250 = Q + 480

Q = - 250 - 480 = - 730 KJ

The heat is transferred out of the system.
