When a pendulum with a period of 2.00000 s is moved to a new location from one where the acceleration due to gravity was 9.80 m/

s2, its new period becomes 1.99824 s. By how much does the acceleration due to gravity differ at its new location? How is the period of the pendulum related to the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity at the location of the pendulum? What happens to the length of the pendulum as it is moved to the new location?

1. By 0.02 m/s^2

The period of a pendulum is given by:

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

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the gravitational acceleration

Initially, we know:

T = 2.00000 s is the period of the pendulum

g = 9.80 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity at the original location

We can solve the equation for L in order to find the length of the pendulum:

L=\frac{T^2}{(2 \pi)^2}g=\frac{(2.0000 s)^2}{(2 \pi)^2}(9.80 m/s^2)=0.99396 m

The length of the pendulum does not change when it is moved to the new location, so we can use the same equation with T=1.99824 s (the new period) and solving it for g to find the acceleration due to gravity at the new location:

g=L\frac{(2 \pi)^2}{T^2}=(0.99396 m)\frac{(2 \pi)^2}{(1.99824 s)^2})=9.82 m/s^2

So, the change in gravitational acceleration is

\Delta g = g_2 - g_1 = 9.82 m/s^2-9.80 m/s^2 = 0.02 m/s^2

2) the period of the pendulum is directly proportional to the square root of the length, L, and inversely proportional to the square root of the gravitational acceleration, g.

The period of a pendulum is given by:

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

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the gravitational acceleration

So, we see that the period of the pendulum is directly proportional to the square root of the length, L, and inversely proportional to the square root of the gravitational acceleration, g.

3) The length of the pendulum does not change

The length of the pendulum does not depend on the location: in fact, only the value of the gravitational acceleration, g, depends on the location, therefore the length of the pendulum, L, does not change.

If the trend changed toward traditional (pre-World War II) families, the women’s rights are employment in manufacturing sector.

<h3>What is World war?</h3>

The war between two countries to take over each other's kingdom using weapons to kill each other.

Before the world war, the army needs armor, weapons, guns and tanks. Their manufacturing is only possible with many workers to work for long hours. If the men are not enough, then women are given opportunities to work with them.

Thus, the women’s rights are employment in manufacturing sector when trend changed traditional families.

A pendulum has 294 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
baherus [9]

Newton's law of conservation states that energy of an isolated system remains a constant. It can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to the other.


Implying the above law of conservation of energy in the case of pendulum we can conclude that at the bottom of the swing the entire potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy. Also the potential energy is zero at this point.


Mathematically also potential energy is represented as


Potential energy= mgh


Where m is the mass of the pendulum.


g is the acceleration due to gravity


h is the height from the bottom z the ground.


At the bottom of the swing,the height is zero, hence the potential energy is also zero.


The kinetic energy is represented mathematically as


Kinetic energy= 1/2 mv^2


Where m is the mass of the pendulum


v is the velocity of the pendulum


At the bottom the pendulum has the maximum velocity. Hence the kinetic energy is maximum at the bottom.


Energy can neither be created e destroyed. It can only be transferred from one form to another. Implying this law and the above explainations we conclude that at the bottom of the pendulum,the potential energy=0 and the kinetic energy=294J as the entire potential energy is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom.
