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.

A stone was dropped off a cliff and hit the ground with a speed of 88 ft/s. What is the height (in feet) of the cliff
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

the height (in feet) of the cliff is 121 ft

Explanation:

A stone hit the cliff with

speed, v = 88 ft/s

Acceleration, a= 32 ft/s^2

initial speed, u = 0 ft/s

height is h.

To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations, Equation of motion describes change in velocity, depending on the acceleration and the distance traveled

so, writing the formula of Equation of motion:

v^2 - u^2 = 2*a*h

substituting the appropriate values,

(88)^2 - 0 = 2*32* h

h=(88)^2 / 64

h= 121 ft

hence

the height (in feet) of the cliff is 121 ft

In the diagrams, the solid green line represents Earth’s rotational axis and the dashed red line represents the magnetic field a
katovenus [111]

Explanation:

Though the diagram that is mentioned in the questions is not given. I have given general information related to the Earth's magnetic axis with respect to geographic/rotational axis.

Axis is an imaginary line around which a body rotates. The rotational axis of the Earth enters into and exits from the Earth at two points namely: North and South pole.

We know that the Earth behaves like a huge bar magnet so just like the bar magnet it must also have magnetic axis and poles. Earth has north magnetic pole and south magnetic pole. It has a strong magnetic field as well known as magnetosphere.

The interesting point about magnetic axis is that it is not same as rotational axis. In fact it makes an angle with the rotational axis. This is known as magnetic inclination. This inclination varies at different points on Earth.

Another interesting point is that the geographic and magnetic poles are opposite. That means near the geographic north pole we have the magnetic south pole and vice versa.
