Answer:

C. 1) No Change (4 sec) 2) 5.7 sec 3) 2.8 sec 4) No Change (4 sec)

Explanation:

Given that:

Period (T) = 4 s

1) If the mass is doubled.

The period of a pendulum is given by the formula:

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} } where L is the length and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

From the formula, the period does not depend on the mass of the spring therefore if the mass is doubled the period does not change.

2) The string length is doubled

Given that:

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }, but\ T =4s\\4=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

if the length is doubled, the new spring length is 2L. Therefore the new period (T1) is given as:

T_1=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{2L}{g} }=\sqrt{2} (2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} })=\sqrt{2}*4=5.7\ sec

3) The string length is halved

Given that:

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }, but\ T =4s\\4=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

if the length is halved, the new spring length is L/2. Therefore the new period (T1) is given as:

T_1=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{2g} }=\sqrt{1/2} (2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} })=\sqrt{1/2}*4=2.8\ sec

4) The amplitude is halved

From the formula, the period does not depend on the amplitude therefore if the amplitude is halved the period does not change.

A comet is cruising through the solar system at a speed of 50,000 kilometers per hour foe 4 hours time. What is the total distan
Triss [41]

Answer:

<em>The distance covered by comet is </em>200,000 km

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance with time. It is given by the equation speed= \bold{\frac{distance}{time}}

Thus distance= speed*time

In this problem it is given that speed of comet= \frac{50,000km}{hr}

time travelled by the comet= 4 hours

Thus distance= speed*time

                            = 500000*4

                            = \bold{200,000km}

What is the definition of Mutualism
noname [10]
Mutualism is a long-term relationship where two organisms interact in such a way that both of them benefits from that relationship.

For example, there is a relationship between a bird called "oxpecker", and a rhino. While the bird eats the harmful bugs (eg. tick) on the rhino's skin and relieves its hunger; the rhino gets rid of the bugs that harm it.
