g A simple pendulum (consisting of a point mass suspended by a massless string) on the surface of the earth has a period of 1.00

s. On a distant planet, a pendulum of identical length but twice the mass is found to have the same period. What is true about the acceleration due to gravity on the distant planet? [Assume both pendulums operate free of any friction or air resistance force]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for time period of a pendulum is given as follows :

T = 2π\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

l is length of pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity .

So time period of pendulum  is not dependent on the mass of the pendulum . If time period is same and length is also the same then acceleration due to gravity will also be the same . Hence the acceleration due to gravity at distant planet will be same as that on the earth.

a projectile is launched at an angle of 30 degrees and lands later at the same level. if it's initial speed is 50 m/s, solve for
Mrrafil [7]
using \: the \: formula \\ t = \frac{2u \sin( \alpha ) }{g} where \: u = initial \: speed \: \\ \alpha = angle \: of \: projection \\ g = acceleration \: due \: to \: gravity \\ \frac{2 \times 50 \times \sin(30) }{10} \\ \frac{100 \times 0.5}{10} = \frac{50}{10} = 5seconds

Maximum height
= (Usinα)^2/2g
(50*0.5)^2/20
25^2/20
625/20
=31.25metres
horizontal distance = Range= [U^2 * sin2α]/g
[50^2 * sin60]/10
2500 * 0.8660/10
2165/10=216.5metres

What are the characteristics of a blackbody radiator? Give an example.
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

A blackbody, or Planckian radiator, is a cavity within a heated material from which heat cannot escape. No matter what the material, the walls of the cavity exhibit a characteristic spectral emission, which is a function of its temperature.

Example:

Emission from a blackbody is temperature dependent and at high temperature, a blackbody will emit a spectrum of photon energies that span the visible range, and therefore it will appear white. The Sun is an example of a high-temperature blackbody.

explain why a high-speed collision between two cars would cause more damage than a low-speed collision between the same two cars
9966 [12]
The force equation can easily prove this.  F=ma.  This states that the force on an object is equal to mass times acceleration.  If the mass stays the same and the velocity of the cars increases than that means there is a larger force.  This is because in both cases the cars are stopping in almost an instant and the times of the crashes are theoretically identical.  Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.  If the velocity is higher with the same amount of time than that means there is a higher acceleration.  If you plug a higher acceleration into the force equation then you wind up with a higher force and in turn a more damaging collision.
