Your pendulum does a complete swing in 1.9 seconds.  You want to SLOW IT DOWN so it takes 2.0 seconds.

Longer pendulums swing slower.

You need to <em>make your pendulum slightly longer</em>.

If your pendulum is hanging by a thread or a thin string, then its speed doesn't depend at all on the weight at the bottom.  You can add weight or cut some off, and it won't change the speed a bit.

Which of the following describes the measure of current?
Lerok [7]
Current is defined as the rate at which charge flows. The quantity that is current is directly affected by the voltage and the resistance of the circuit, where current is directly proportional to the voltage, and inversely to the resistance.

Among the choices, the correct answer is B.

A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

<em>The density of rock = 3.37 g/cm³</em>

Explanation:

Density: Density can be defined as the ratio of the mass of a body to the volume. The S.I unit of density is kg/m³. It can be expressed mathematically as ,

D = M/V............................................... Equation 1

Where D = density of the body, M = mass of the body, V = volume of the body.

From Archimedes' principle, a body will displace a volume of water equal to  its volume.

Therefore, Volume of the object = volume of water displaced

<em>Given: M = 300 g, V = volume of water displace = 89.0 cm³.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1</em>

<em>D = 300/89</em>

<em>D = 3.37 g/cm³</em>

<em>The density of rock = 3.37 g/cm³</em>

1. A student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

(a) Displacement of an object is the shortest path covered by it.

In this problem, a student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.  She travels 0.3 km south to retrieve her item. She then travels 0.4 mi north to arrive at school.

0.4 miles = 0.64 km

displacement = 0.7-0.3+0.64 = 1.04 km

(b) Average velocity = total displacement/total time

t = 15 min = 0.25 hour

v=\dfrac{1.04\ km}{0.25\ h}\\\\v=4.16\ km/h

Hence, this is the required solution.
