A pendulum of mass 5.0 kg hangs in equilibrium. A frustrated student walks up to it and kicks the bob with a horizontal force of

30.0 ????. The force is applied over 0.3 seconds. How long does the pendulum have to be to have a period of 5.0 seconds? What is the maximum angle of displacement of the swinging pendulum?

Answer:

The length is L = 6.206m and the angle is \theta = 37.752^o.

Explanation:

The period T of the pendulum is related to its length L by

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L}{g} },

where g =9.8m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity.

Solving for L we get

L = \dfrac{T^2g}{4\pi^2}

putting in T =5.0s and g =9.8m/s^2 we get:

L = \dfrac{(5.0s)^2*9.8m/s^2}{4\pi^2}

\boxed{L = 6.206m.}

There are two forces acting on the pendulum: The gravitational force mg and the F = 30N student's force. Therefore, the angular displacement \theta that these forces give is

sin(\theta ) = \dfrac{F}{mg}

\theta = sin^{-1}( \dfrac{F}{mg})

putting in F =30N, m =5.0kg, and g =9.8m/s^2 we get

\theta = sin^{-1}( \dfrac{30N}{5.0kg*9.8m/s^2})

\boxed{\theta = 37.752^o.}

Which process generates energy in the Sun?1) nuclear fusion2) nuclear fission3) chain reaction4) transmutation
Ber [7]

1) nuclear fusion

During nuclear fusion, the high pressure and temperature in the sun's core cause nuclei to separate from their electrons. During this process, radiant energy is released.

A sound wave has a speed of 343 m/s in air. What is the wavelength of a sound wave with a frequency of 686 Hz
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Wavelength is the distance between 2 adjacent points in a wave

we can use the following equation to find the wavelength of a sound wave

wavelength = speed / frequency

frequency is the number of waves passing a point in 1 second

substituting the values in the equation

wavelength = 343 m/s / 686 Hz

wavelength = 0.5 m

wavelength of the wave is 0.5 m

If the initial velocity of a ball is sent straight upward at 10.5m/s from the ground what will its final velocity be when it hit
Shalnov [3]

Answer: -10.08 m/s

Explanation:

Here we only need to analyze the vertical problem.

When the ball is in the air, the only force acting on it will be the gravitational force, this means that the acceleration of the ball, is equal to the gravitational acceleration, then:

a(t) = -9.8m/s^2

Where the negative sign is because gravity pulls the ball down.

To get the velocity equation we need to integrate over time, we get:

v(t) = (-9.8m/s^2)*t + v0

Where v0 is the initial vertical velocity, here it is v0 = 10.5 m/s

Then the velocity equation is:

v(t) =  (-9.8m/s^2)*t + 10.5 m/s

To get the position equation, we need to integrate again over time, we get:

p(t) = (1/2)*(-9.8m/s^2)*t^2 + (10.5 m/s)*t + p0

Where p0 is the initial position, we know that the ball is sent upward from the ground, so p0 = 0m

Then the position equation is:

p(t) = (1/2)*(-9.8m/s^2)*t^2 + (10.5 m/s)*t

Now we need to find the value of t such that the position is equal to zero (this means that the ball hits the ground again).

Then we need to solve:

p(t) = 0 =  (1/2)*(-9.8m/s^2)*t^2 + (10.5 m/s)*t

If we divide both sides by t, we get:

0 =   (1/2)*(-9.8m/s^2)*t + (10.5 m/s)

Now we can solve it:

(1/2)*(9.8m/s^2)*t = 10.5 m/s

t = (10.5 m/s)/((1/2)*(9.8m/s^2)) = 2.14 s

This means that after 2.14 seconds, the ball will hit the ground again.

The velocity of the ball when it hits the ground is equal to:

v(2.14s) = (-9.8m/s^2)*2.14s + 10.5 m/s = -10.08 m/s

How do we use information from earths climate change data in order to engineer soulutions that reduce carbon emissions and impac
masya89 [10]

Answer:

That is a very broad question. One thing that does not seem to be considered is the depletion of the ozone layer at high altitudes.

In the 1960's chlorofluorcarbons (CFC,s) became popular as refrigerants, spray can propellants, etc.  In January 1989 the Montreal Protocol was passed which has greatly reduced the use of these substances. However, it may be several decades before the ozone layer can be replaced and again absorb harmful ulraviolet rays that may be partly responsible for the increase in global warming.  

(One chlorine atom at high altitudes can be responsible for the destruction of 100,000 molecules of ozone - catalytic reaction)
