If you are building a clock by using a pendulum's oscillations to keep time and you find the period is a little too small (the c

lock counts seconds too quickly), what should you do to adjust the pendulum's period? O
a. Increase the length of the string
b. Increase the mass on the end of the string
c. Increase the amplitude of the swing
d. Decrease the length of the string
e. Decrease the mass on the end of the string

Time period of pendulum is given by

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

Here,

L is length

g is acceleration due to gravity

Therefore we can determine that the period of the pendulum is directly proportional to the square root of the length of the rope.

T \propto \sqrt{L}

Therefore, it is necessary to increase the length of the rope to increase the period so that it counts the seconds more slowly. The correct answer is A.

How long does it take anya to cover the distance of 5.00 miles ?
sammy [17]
Here is the full information about the question. <span>Ilya and Anya each can run at a speed of 8.50mph and walk at a speed of 3.50 mph . They set off together on a route of length 5.00 miles . Anya walks half of the distance and runs the other half, while Ilya walks half of the time and runs the other half.
the calculation would be:
</span><span>
t = d / s </span>
<span>t = 2.5 (half of the total distance) / 8.5 (speed of running) </span>
<span>This is .294 hours which is about 1058s... </span>

<span>for the walking part... </span>

<span>t = d / s </span>
<span>t = 2.5 / 3.5 </span>
<span>t = 5/7hours = 2571 s. </span>

The space shuttle, in circular orbit around the Earth, collides with a small asteroid which ends up in the shuttle's storage bay
Artemon [7]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

The space shuttle, in circular orbit around the Earth, collides with a small asteroid which ends up in the shuttle's storage bay.

This form of collision is called inelastic collision. And inelastic collision momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved. Hence the correct option is b. only momentum is conserved.
