Answer:

In a collision, the velocity change is always computed by subtracting the initial velocity value from the final velocity value. If an object is moving in one direction before a collision and rebounds or somehow changes direction, then its velocity after the collision has the opposite direction as before.

How would the period of pendulum differ from an equivalent one on earth?<br>

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

If you know that that free fall acceleration g on the Moon is about 6 times less than on the Earth, it gives you the answer: on the Moon the same pendulum will have a period about √6≈2.45 longer than on the Earth.

g A simple pendulum (consisting of a point mass suspended by a massless string) on the surface of the earth has a period of 1.00

leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for time period of a pendulum is given as follows :

T = 2π $\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

l is length of pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity .

So time period of pendulum is not dependent on the mass of the pendulum . If time period is same and length is also the same then acceleration due to gravity will also be the same . Hence the acceleration due to gravity at distant planet will be same as that on the earth.

What is the acceleration experienced by a car that takes 10s to reach 27m/s from rest

Lerok [7]

|acceleration| = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in the car's speed = (27 - 0) = 27 m/s
Time for the change = 10 sec

|acceleration| = (27 m/s) / (10 s) = 2.7 m/s² .

That's the magnitude of the car's acceleration.
We don't know anything about its direction.

mihalych1998 [28]

That is FALSE. The equation to calculate the charges has a distance component that is in the denominator which means that it is inversely proportional (as the distance os greater the force is smaller)

A 300 gg ball on a 70-cmcm-long string is swung in a vertical circle about a point 200 cmcm above the floor. The string suddenly

Ratling [72]

Answer:

the tension in the string an instant before it broke = 34 N

Explanation:

Given that :

mass of the ball m = 300 g = 0.300 kg

length of the string r = 70 cm = 0.7 m

At highest point, law of conservation of energy can be expressed as :

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = mgh\\\\v = \sqrt{2gh}\\\\v = \sqrt{2*(9.8 \ m/s^2)*(6.00 \ m - 2.00 \ m)}\\\\$
