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.

Korolek [52]
The main (and only) purpose of the turbine in the turbo jet engine is to drive the air compressor. The turbojet engine works by compressing the air using an inlet and a compressor, then mixing the fuel with the compressed air, then passing the mixture to the combustor, then passing the high pressure air through a turbine and a nozzle.

The density of gold is 19.3 g cm³. What is the mass of a bar of gold in Kg that measures 6 cm x 4 cmx to 2 cm ?
klemol [59]

Answer: 0.9264 kg

Explanation: [I'll use "cc" for cubic centimeter, instead of cm^3.

The volume is 6cm*4cm*2cm = 48 cm^3 (cc).

Density of Au is 19.3 g/cc

Mass of gold = (48 cc)*(9.3 g/cc) = 926.4 grams Au

1 kg = 1,000 g

(926.4 grams Au)*(1 kg/1,000 g) = 0.9264 kg, 0.93 kg to 2 sig figs

At gold's current price of $57,500/kg, this bar is worth $53,268. Keep it hidden from your lab partner (and instructor).
