Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Pendulum 1:

Mass, m = 0.2 kg

Length, l = 5 m

Pendulum 2:

Mass, m = 0.6 kg

Length, l = 1 m

Period, T = 2pi × sqrt(l/g)

Note:

Frequency, f = 1/T

Mass is not a parameter in the formula for calculating frequency of the pendulum. Therefore, mass does not affect the frequency of the motion.

Let's find the frequency of both pendulum irrespective of their masses.

T1 = 2pi × sqrt(5/9.8)

= 4.488 s

Frequency, f1 = 0.22 Hz

T2 = 2pi × sqrt(1/9.8)

= 2.007 s

Frequency, f1 = 0.498 Hz

= 0.5 Hz

Given Information:

Pendulum 1 mass = m₁ = 0.2 kg

Pendulum 2 mass = m₂ = 0.6 kg

Pendulum 1 length = L₁ = 5 m

Pendulum 2 length = L₂ = 1 m

Required Information:

Affect of mass on the frequency of the pendulum = ?

Answer:

The mass of the ball will not affect the frequency of the pendulum.

Explanation:

The relation between period and frequency of pendulum is given by

f = 1/T

The period of pendulum is given by

T = 2π√(L/g)

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity and L is the length of the string

As you can see the period (and frequency too) of pendulum is independent of the mass of the pendulum. Therefore, the mass of the ball will not affect the frequency of the pendulum.

Bonus:

Pendulum 1:

T₁ = 2π√(L₁/g)

T₁ = 2π√(5/9.8)

T₁ = 4.49 s

f₁ = 1/T₁

f₁ = 1/4.49

f₁ = 0.22 Hz

Pendulum 2:

T₂ = 2π√(L₂/g)

T₂ = 2π√(1/9.8)

T₂ = 2.0 s

f₂ = 1/T₂

f₂ = 1/2.0

f₂ = 0.5 Hz

So we can conclude that the higher length of the string increases the period of the pendulum and decreases the frequency of the pendulum.

What happens to the gravitational potential energy between two particles if the distance between them is halved? (a) It does not
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy between two particles, if the distance between them is halved, is multiplied by 4 (option c).

Explanation:

The gravitational force is the force of mutual attraction that two objects with mass experience.

The Law of Universal Gravitation enunciated by Newton says that every material particle attracts any other material particle with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them. Mathematically this is expressed as:

F=G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

where m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, r the distance between them and G a universal constant that receives  the name of constant of gravitation.

If the distance between two particles is reduced by half, then, where F' is the new value of the gravitational force:

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{(\frac{r}{2} )^{2} }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{2^{2} } }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{4} }

F'=4*G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

F'=4*F

Points a and b lie in a region where the y-component of the electric field is Ey=α+β/y2. The constants in this expression have t
Drupady [299]

Answer:

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined by

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E .ds

In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds

We substitute

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy

We integrate

          V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y

We evaluate between the lower limit A  2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m

           V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V

As they ask us the reverse case

             V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}

             V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3
