Answer:

$8.9 m/s^2$

Explanation:

The period of a simple pendulum is given by the equation

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

where

L is the lenght of the pendulum

g is the acceleration due to gravity at the location of the pendulum

We notice from the formula that the period of a pendulum does not depend on the mass of the system

In this problem:

-The pendulum comes back to the point of release exactly 2.4 seconds after the release. --> this means that the period of the pendulum is

T = 2.4 s

- The length of the pendulum is

L = 1.3 m

Re-arranging the equation for g, we can find the acceleration due to gravity on the planet:

$g=(\frac{2\pi}{T})^2 L=(\frac{2\pi}{2.4})^2(1.3)=8.9 m/s^2$

The current world-record motorcycle jump is 77.0 m, set by Jason Renie. Assume that he left the take-off ramp at 13.0° to the ho

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The take-off speed is 41.48 $\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

Given :

Range $R = 77$ m

Projectile angle $\alpha =$ 13°

From the formula of range,

$R = \frac{v_{o} ^{2} }{g} \sin 2\alpha$

Find the velocity from above equation,

$v_{o} = \sqrt{\frac{gR}{\sin 2 \alpha } }$

$v_{o} = \sqrt{\frac{9.8 \times 77}{\sin 26} }$ ( ∵ $g = 9.8$ $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$ )

$v_{o} = 41.48$ $\frac{m}{s}$

Therefore, the take-off speed is 41.48 $\frac{m}{s}$

Which example best illustrates the transfer of energy between two waves?

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

A) A buoy rises in the water as a boat speeds past.

Explanation:

The passing boat transfers energy in the form of a wave. Other options illustrate other physics concepts like gravity (falling egg) or Newton's law (for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction).

Margaret [11]

Answer:

$P=2.57\times 10^{-7}\ N/m^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

A radio wave transmits 38.5 W/m² of power per unit area.

A flat surface of area A is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

We need to find the radiation pressure on it. It is given by the formula as follows :

$P=\dfrac{2I}{c}$

Where

c is speed of light

Putting all the values, we get :

$P=\dfrac{2\times 38.5}{3\times 10^8}\\\\=2.57\times 10^{-7}\ N/m^2$

So, the radiation pressure is $2.57\times 10^{-7}\ N/m^2$ .
