Starting from rest, a 2-m-long pendulum swings from an angleof

Physics

Andrews [41]3 years ago

Answer:

D.) 1m/s

Explanation:

Assume the initial angle of the swing is 12.8 degree with respect to the vertical. We can calculate the vertical distance from this initial point to the lowest point by first calculate the vertical distance from this point the the pivot point:

L_1 = L*cos(12.8) = 2*0.975 = 1.95 m

where L is the pendulum length

The vertical distance from the lowest point to the pivot point L_2 is the pendulum length 2m

this means the vertical distance from this initial point to the lowest point is simply:

L_3 = L_2 - L_1 = 2 - 1.95 = 0.05 m

As the pendulum travel (vertically) from the initial point to the bottom point, its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy:

E_p = E_k

mgh = mv^2/2

where m is the mass of the pendulum, g  = 10 m/s2 is the constant gravitational acceleration, h = 0.05 is the vertical it travels, v is the pendulum velocity at the bottom, which we are trying to solve for.

The m on both sides of the equation cancel out

v^2 = 2gh = 2*10*0.05 = 1

v = \sqrt{1} = 1 m/s

so D is the correct answer

Which force is represented by the arrow at
shutvik [7]

A is pulling the block straight down toward the center of the Earth, no matter what the slope of the plane may be. A is the force of gravity.

The directions of B and C both depend on the slope of the plane.

B is a force that's parallel to the plane, pulling the block UP the plane. B is the force of friction.

C is a force perpendicular to the plane, preventing the block from falling down through the plane. C is the normal force.

Which properties of a lava lamp are important to remember when modeling convection?
Luba_88 [7]
Important thing when making a lava lamp are the two liquids with different density so that it would not mix and that it would expand when heated. The movement of the orange liquid is called convection. if you will not heat the orange one, it till just stay on the stop and not go under tha water.

If the same pressure is exerted over a greater area will more of less force result? Group of answer choices :
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

More force

Explanation:

Pressure and force are related by the equation:

p=\frac{F}{A}

where

p is the pressure

F is the force

A is the area

We can re-arrange the equation as

F=pA

In this problem, the pressure is kept the same (p' = p) while the area is increased. As we can see from the previous equation, the force applied is directly proportional to the area: therefore, a greater area means also a greater force.

When you ride a bicycle at constant speed, nearly all the energy you expend goes into the work you do against the drag force of
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Power output = 96.506 watts

Explanation:

Drag coefficient (Cd) = 0.9

V = 7.3 m/s

Air density (ρ) = 1.225 kg/m^(3)

Area (A) = 0.45 m^2

Let's find the drag force ;

Fd=(1/2)(Cd)(ρ)(A)(v^(2))

So Fd = (1/2)(0.9)(1.225)(0.45)(7.3^(2)) = 13.22N

Drag power = Drag Force x Drag velocity.

Thus drag power, = 13.22 x 7.3 = 96.506 watts
