Pendulum clock. Your friend is trying to construct a clock for a craft show and asks you for some advice. She has decided to con
struct the clock with a pendulum. The pendulum will be a very thin, very light wooden bar with a thin, but heavy, brass ring fastened to one end. The length of the rod is 80 cm and the diameter of the ring is 10 cm. She is planning to drill a hole in the bar to place the axis of rotation 15 cm from one end. She wants you to tell her the period of this pendulum.

Answer:
The time period for this pendulum is 1.68 seconds
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The length of the pendulum is measured from the axis of rotation to the center of mass of the bob of the pendulum
Now,
In this case, the length becomes:
L= 80 - 15+5
L = 70 cm
The time period = T = 2π √L/g
T = 2* 3.14 *√0.7/9.8
= 1.68 seconds

Answer:
1. Distance travelled = 12 km.
2. Displacement = 8.6 km
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Distance 1 (d₁) = 7 km
Distance 2 (d₂) = 5 km
Total distance =?
Displacement =?
1. Determination of the distance travelled.
Distance 1 (d₁) = 7 km
Distance 2 (d₂) = 5 km
Total distance (dₜ) =?
dₜ = d₁ + d₂
dₜ = 7 + 5
dₜ = 12 km
2. Determination of the displacement.
In the attached photo, R is the displacement.
We can obtain the value of R by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated below:
R² = 7² + 5²
R² = 49 + 25
R² = 74
Take the square root of both side
R = √74
R = 8.6 km
