A pendulum is swinging back and forth with a period of 2.0 seconds here on Earth. This pendulum is then brought to the Moon, whe

re the acceleration due to gravity is much smaller. What will happen to the period of the pendulum, assuming everything else about it (mass, length, initial swing height, etc) remains exactly the same? Explain your answer.
Please. I really need help.

Answer: The period of the pendulum will be bigger than in Earth.

Explanation:

The period of a pendulum is:

T = 2*pi*√(L/g)

where pi = 3.14

L is the length of the pendulum and g is the gravitational acceleration.

you can see that g is in the denominator, so if g is smaller, then the end number woll be bigger (because in the moon we are dividing by a smaller number)

This means that in the moon the period of the pendulum is bigger than in the Earth.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

-72.0°C

Explanation:

PV = nRT

Since n, number of moles, is constant:

PV / T = PV / T

(4.65×10⁶ Pa) V / (21 + 273.15) K = (1.06×10⁶ Pa) (3V) / T

T = 201.16 K

T = -72.0°C

I need ideas of what kind of simple motor i can build and how i can build it. The simple motor MUST spin without using your own
Alborosie

See for yourself how the forces of electricity and magnetism can work together by building a simple DC electric motor using simple materials you can find in any hardware store!

Electricity and magnetism are both forces caused by the movement of tiny charged particles that make up atoms, the building blocks of all matter. When a wire is hooked up to a battery, current flows through the wire because negatively charged electrons flow from the negative terminal of the battery toward the positive terminal of the battery because opposite charges attract each other, while similar charges repel each other. This flow of electrons through the wire is an electric current, and it produces a magnetic field.

In a magnet, atoms are lined up so that the negatively charged electrons are all spinning in the same direction. Like an electric current, the movement of the electrons creates a magnetic force. The area around the magnet where the force is active is called a magnetic field. Metal objects and other magnets that enter this field will be pulled toward the magnet.

The way the atoms are lined up creates two different poles in the magnet, a north pole and a south pole. As with electrical charges, opposite poles attract each other, while like poles repel each other.

Learn about electromagnetism and its many uses here.

Now let's watch it work as we build a motor.

Suppose you want to use this human engine to lift a 2.35 kg box from the floor to a tabletop 1.30 m above the floor. How much mu
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the box, m = 2.35 kg

It is lifted from the floor to a tabletop 1.30 m above the floor, h = 1.3 m

We need to find the increase the gravitational potential energy. Initial it will placed at ground i.e. its initial gravitational potential is equal to 0. The increase in the gravitational potential energy is given by :

U=mgh

U=2.35\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1.3\ m

U = 29.93 Joules

So, the increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The change in the mass of box = 0.01 kg

Volume of air in the polythene bag = Volume of air in the rigid box

Therefore, Volume of air in the box = 0.008 m^3

Now, Density = Mass/ Volume

=> Density = 0.01 / 0.008 = 1.25 Kg / m^3
