Answer:

36.4276\ m/s^2

Explanation:

m = Mass of stick

L = Length of stick = 1 m

h = Center of mass of stick = \dfrac{1}{2}=0.5\ m

g = Acceleration due to gravity

T = Time period = 0.85 s

Time period is given by

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{I}{mgh}}

Moment of inertia is given by

I=m\dfrac{L^2}{3}

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m\dfrac{L^2}{3}}{mgh}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{L^2}{3gh}}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{4\pi^2L^2}{3hT^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 1^2}{3\times 0.5\times 0.85^2}\\\Rightarrow g=36.4276\ m/s^2

The acceleration of gravity on this planet is 36.4276\ m/s^2

Answer:

54.6 m/s^2

Explanation:

length of the pendulum, l = 1 m

time period of the pendulum, T = 0.85 s

According to the formula of time period of pendulum

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

g = \frac{4\pi ^{2}l}{T^{2}}

g = \frac{4\times 3.14\times 3.14\times 1}{0.85\times 0.85}

g = 54.6 m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity at this planet is 54.6 m/s^2.

A penny rolls along the table for a distance of 1.3 meters. Jackie pushes it 40 centimeters further in the same direction.
brilliants [131]
40 meters times 1 meter over 100 centimeters equals 0.4 meters. 1.3 meters + 40 centimeters =. 1.3 m + 0.4 m = 1.7 m. The answer is 1.7 meters

In an electron cloud, an electron farther east away from the nucleus has?
vladimir2022 [97]

An electron that is far away from the nucleus have higher energy than an electron near the nucleus. Nucleus are positively charged and those electrons near it get attracted; those electrons gain kinetic energy hence reducing their internal energy. The electrons far from nucleus have low kinetic energy hence more internal energy.

III. A Carnot heat engine operates between a source at 1000 K and a sink at 300 K. If the heat engine is supplied with heat at a
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

70 %

9.33331 kW

Explanation:

Q = Heat supplied = 800 kJ/min

T_h = Hot reservoir = 1000 K

T_c = Cold reservoir = 300 K

Converting kJ/min to kW

800\times \frac{1}{60}=13.3333\ kW

Thermal efficiency

\eta=1-\frac{T_c}{T_h}\\\Rightarrow \eta=1-\frac{300}{1000}\\\Rightarrow \eta=0.7

The thermal efficiency is 70%

Efficiency

\eta=\frac{W}{Q}\\\Rightarrow W=\eta Q\\\Rightarrow W=0.7\times 13.3333\\\Rightarrow W=9.33331\ kW

The power output of the engine is 9.33331 kW
