Besides the force due to gravity or g, what else determines the period of a pendulum?

2 answers:

5 0

For a simple pendulum, the mathematical equation that describes the period (T) is T=√(l/g) where l is the length of the string and g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 metres per second). Therefore it can be seen that both gravity and the length of the string within a pendulum effects its period.

A motorcycle of mass 100 kilograms slowly rolls off the edge of a cliff and falls for three seconds before reaching the bottom o

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

C) 3,000 kg m/s

Explanation:

We can consider the horizontal velocity of the motorcycle to be zero, since it rolls off the edge of the cliff very slowly. So, we only need to find the vertical velocity at the time of the impact with the ground.

The vertical velocity of the motorcycle at time t is given by (free-fall motion):

$v(t)=v_0 -gt$

where

$v_0=0$ is the initial vertical velocity (zero, since the motorcycle is not moving)

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

t is the time

Since the motorcycle hits the ground after t = 3 seconds, we have

$v(3 s)=0-(9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)=-29.4 m/s$

And since we know its mass, m=100 kg, we can find its momentum:

$p=mv=(100 kg)(-29.4 m/s)=-2940 kg m/s \cdot -3000 kg m/s$

and the negative sign simply means downward direction.

Which answer is a scientifically accurate description of velocity?

viktelen [127]

The boat traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.

Explanation:

Velocity is a physical quantity that describes the rate of change of displacement with time.

Velocity = $\frac{Displacement}{time taken}$

The quantity differs from speed in that it has both magnitude and direction.

From the options given above:

Displacement: The boat traveled in the north direction from the dock to a 200m mark.

Time taken: approximately less than 5 minutes was the duration of traveling.

This describes the boat's velocity accurately.

A photon with an energy E = 2.12 GeV creates a proton-antiproton pair in which the proton has a kinetic energy of 96.0 MeV. What

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the anti proton is 147.4 MeV.

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy = 2.12 GeV

Kinetic energy = 96.0 MeV

We need to calculate the kinetic energy of the anti proton

Using formula of energy

$E_{photon}=m_{p}c^2+m_{np}c^2+K.E_{p}+K.E_{np}$

We know that,

$m_{p}c^2=m_{np}c^2$

So, $E_{photon}=2mc^2+K.E_{p}+K.E_{np}$

$K.E_{np}=E_{photon}-(2mc^2+K.E_{p})$

Put the value into the formula

$K.E_{np}=2.12\times10^{9}-2\times938.3\times10^{6}-96\times10^{6}$

$K.E_{np}=147.4\ MeV$

Hence, The kinetic energy of the anti proton is 147.4 MeV.

Two bran muffins are sitting on a table at room temperature.

velikii [3]

The statement that is true is a. the large bran muffin contains more heat energy. This statement holds true because of the equation E=mc2. E= Energy, m=mass and c=the speed of light. Although both muffins are at room temperature, the larger will theoretically have more heat energy because it has more mass.
