Starting at its rightmost position, it takes 2 seconds for the pendulum of a grandfather clock to swing a horizontal distance of
sdas [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is b,  x = 9 cos (pi / 2 t)

Explanation:

The equation that describes a simple pendulum is

             θ  = θ₀  cos (wt + φ)

The angle is measured is radians

            θ = x / L

We replace

           d / L = x₀ / L cos (wt + φ)

            x₀ = 9 in

         

We replace

             d = 9 cos (wt + φ)

Angular velocity is related to frequency and period.

           w = 2π f = 2π / T

The period is the time of a complete oscillation T = 4 s

           w =2π / 4

           w = π / 2

Let's replace

             x = 9 cos (π/2 t + φ)

As the system is released from the root x = x₀ for t = 0 s

              x₀ = x₀ cos φ

             Cos φ = 1

             φ = 0°

The final equation is

             x = 9 cos (pi / 2 t)

The correct answer is b

Questions E6 a&amp; b and E7 a&amp;b?
erica [24]

Explanation:

6a) Work = force × distance

W = Fd

W = (60 N) (10 m)

W = 600 J

6b) Change in energy = work

ΔKE = 600 J

7a) Kinetic energy is half the mass times the square of the velocity.

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (0.4 kg) (25 m/s)²

KE = 125 J

7b) Work = change in energy.  When the ball is stopped, it has zero kinetic energy.

W = ΔKE

W = 0 J − 125 J

W = -125 J
