In addition to gravity, what is the other predominant force that affects the motion of a pendulum?

Physics

konstantin123 [22]4 years ago
7 0

When we're working problems that involve a pendulum, we almost always IGNORE anything else besides gravity.  

Anything else besides gravity that could influence the motion of a pendulum is something that we would eliminate if we could.

Those are air resistance, mass of the string, friction at the top suspension point, and the Coriolis force, due to the Earth's rotation, that tries to change the plane of the pendulum's swing.

This question is probably fishing for the answer "<em>friction</em>".

Does air resistance affect the motion of a falling object differently when the mass is greater?
mixas84 [53]
<span>NO.

Air resistance does not affect the motion of a falling object differently when the mass is greater because the mass of an object does not in any way affect the speed of falling due to gravity, and air resistance depends only on the speed of the object and its surface area.</span>

1. Los Angeles lies on Pacific plate, San Francisco lies on North American plate. When will the two cities meet if the distance
spin [16.1K]

Los Angeles lies on the Pacific plate, San Francisco lies on the North American plate, and the meeting point of the two cities is mathematically given as

T = 120 x 105 years

<h3>What is the meeting point of the two plates?</h3>

Generally, the equation for Distance is mathematically given as

D = Rate x Time

Therefore

T = D/R

T = (600 x 105) / 5

T = 120 x 105 years

In conclusion, the meeting point of the two plates will be

T = 120 x 105 years
