Answer: The correct answer is option B.
Explanation:
Mass of the sled = 10 kg
Initial speed of the sled = 2 m/s
Kinetic energy of the sled =
Work done by the sled = 20 joules
The work done by the friction will be in opposite direction and equal to the magnitude of the work done of the sled that - 20 J.
Hence, correct answer is option B.
The new period is D) √2 T
Let's recall Elastic Potential Energy and Period of Simple Pendulum formula as follows:
where:
<em>Ep = elastic potential energy ( J )</em>
<em>k = spring constant ( N/m )</em>
<em>x = spring extension ( compression ) ( m )</em>
where:
<em>T = period of simple pendulum ( s )</em>
<em>L = length of pendulum ( m )</em>
<em>g = gravitational acceleration ( m/s² )</em>
Let us now tackle the problem!
<u>Given:</u>
initial length of pendulum = L₁ = L
initial mass = M₁ = M
final length of pendulum = L₂ = 2L
final mass = M₂ = 2M
initial period = T₁ = T
<u>Asked:</u>
final period = T₂ = ?
