A simple pendulum of length 2.5 m makes 5.0 complete swings in 16 s. What is the acceleration of gravity at the location?

Physics

Norma-Jean [14]3 years ago

<h2>The acceleration of gravity at the location is 9.64 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

Length of pendulum = 2.5 m

Time taken for 5 swings = 16 seconds

Time taken for 1 swing = 3.2 seconds

Period of pendulum = 3.2 seconds.

We have equation for period of simple pendulum as

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

Where l is the length of pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Substituting

                 T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\\\\3.2=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{2.5}{g}}\\\\g=\frac{4\pi^2 \times 2.5}{3.2^2}\\\\g=9.64m/s^2

The acceleration of gravity at the location is 9.64 m/s²

Identical forces act for the same length of time on two different masses. The change in momentum of the smaller mass is
xenn [34]

Answer:

Equal to change in momentum of larger mass.

Explanation:

We are given that

Two difference  masses .

Force act on both masses  for the same length of time.

We have to find the change in momentum of the smaller mass.

Let M and m are two masses

M>m

We know that

Change in momentum for large mass=F\Delta t

Change in momentum for small mass=F\Delta t

Because Force and length of time are same for both masses .

Hence, the change in momentum of smaller mass is equal to change in momentum of larger mass.

The density of ice is 0.93 g/cm3. what is the volume, in cm3, of a block of ice whose mass is 5.00 kg? remember to select an ans
serious [3.7K]

The Volume of the ice block is 5376.344 cm^3.

The density of a material is define as the mass per unit volume.

Here, the density of ice given is 0.93 g/cm^3

Mass of the ice block  given is 5 kg or 5000 g

Now calculate the volume of the ice block

density=mass/volume

0.93=5000/Volume

Volume =5376.344 cm^3

Therefore the volume of  ice block is 5376.344 cm^3

according to newton's third law, when a horse pulls on a cart, the cart pulls back on the horse with an equal force on the horse
Debora [2.8K]
Based on Newton's principle, whenever objects A and B interact with each other, they exert forces upon each other.

When a horse pulls on a cart, t<span>he horse exerts a force only to the cart. But that force applies only to the cart, not to the horse.
 
The cart in turn exerts a force on the horse. But that force applies only to the horse, not the cart also.
</span>
There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the horse and a force on the cart. T<span>he net force on the cart remains as it was --- a positive force in the direction of the horse's movement. Therefore, the cart begins to accelerate and move.</span><span>

As shown in the picture above, a sled of mass 67 kilograms is pulled
Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

F net of sled = Tension force by rope - Kinetic friction between ground.

F normal of sled = mg = (67kg)(9.81kg/m^2) = 657.27N.

Kinetic friction = 0.18 (I cannot see the value) * Normal force of sled = 0.18 * 657.27N = 118.31N

So F net of sled = 800N - 118.31N = 681.69N.

(I cannot see what the question is asking for, please check on your own!)
