A heavy ball with a weight of 100 NN is hung from the ceiling of a lecture hall on a 4.4-mm-long rope. The ball is pulled to one

side and released to swing as a pendulum, reaching a speed of 5.7 m/sm/s as it passes through the lowest point

Answer:

175.3 N

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a uniform circular motion, therefore the net force on it must be equal to the centripetal force.

There are two forces acting on the ball at the lowest point of motion:

- The tension in the string, T , upward

- The weight of the ball, mg, downward

The net force (centripetal force) has the same direction as the tension (upward, towards the centre of the circular path), so we can write:

T-mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where the term on the right is the expression for the centripetal force, and where:

T is the tension in the string

mg=100 N is the weight of the ball

m=\frac{mg}{g}=\frac{100}{9.8}=10.2 kg is the mass of the ball

v = 5.7 m/s is the speed of the ball at the lowest point

r = 4.4 m is the length of the rope, so the radius of the circle

Solving for T, we find the tension in the string:

T=mg+m\frac{v^2}{r}=(100)+(10.2)\frac{5.7^2}{4.4}=175.3 N

How many lenses with different focal lengths can be obtained by combining two surfaces whose radii of curvature are 4.00 cm and
Dovator [93]

Answer:

The lenses with different focal length are four.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of curvature R₁= 4

Radius of curvature R₂ = 8

We know ,

Refractive index of glass = 1.6

When, R₁= 4, R₂ = 8

We need to calculate the focal length of the lens

Using formula of focal length

\dfrac{1}{f}=(n-1)(\dfrac{1}{R_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{R_{2}})

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{8})

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{9}{40}

f=4.44\ cm

When , R₁= -4, R₂ = 8

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{-4}+\dfrac{1}{8})

\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{3}{40}

f=-13.33\ cm

When , R₁= 4, R₂ = -8

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{8})

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{3}{40}

f=13.33\ cm

When , R₁= -4, R₂ = -8

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{-4}-\dfrac{1}{8})

\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{9}{40}

f=-4.44\ cm

Hence, The lenses with different focal length are four.

When a wave enters a new medium from an angle, both the speed and the ________ change
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

B: Amplitude

Explanation:

When a wave travels from one medium to the other from an angle, the things that change are amplitude, wavelength, intensity and velocity.

The frequency doesn't change because the frequency depends upon the source of the wave and not the medium by which the wave is propagated.

Write down an example scenario of an object that has acceleration
Grace [21]

Answer:

An object which experiences either a change in the magnitude or the direction of the velocity vector can be said to be accelerating. This explains why an object moving in a circle at constant speed can be said to accelerate - the direction of the velocity changes.

if a car turns a corner at constant speed, it is accelerating because its direction is changing. The quicker you turn, the greater the acceleration. So there is an acceleration when velocity changes either in magnitude (an increase or decrease in speed) or in direction, or both.
