Answer:

16 1/4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming interest is compounded annually, the account balance (A) after t years will be ...

A = P(1 +r)^t

3200 = 1700·1.0397^t

log(3200) = log(1700) +t·log(1.0397)

t = (log(3200) -log(1700))/log(1.0397) ≈ 16.247

The account will reach a balance of $3200 after about 16 1/4 years.

A clock is constructed so that it keeps perfect time when its simple pendulum has a period of 1.000 s at locations where g 5 9.8

mafiozo [28]

Answer

Given,

Period of the Pendulum, T= 1 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

Length of Bob = 0.2482 m

Loss of time in the clock = 1.5 minutes/ day

Loss of time in 1 oscillation

= $\dfrac{1.5\times 60}{24\times 60\times 60}$

= 0.001042

Hence, time period, T = 1 + 0.001042

T = 1.001042 s

a) Using Time period of oscillation formula

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L}{g}}$

$1.001402 = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{0.2482}{g'}}$

$g' = 9.77\ m/s^2$

Free fall acceleration at the clock location = 9.77 m/s²

b) Length of pendulum bob to keep it perfect time

$1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L}{g}}$

$1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L'}{9.77}}$

$L' = 0.2475\ m$

Hence, Length of pendulum bob is equal to 0.2475 m.
