The frequency of a simple pendulum that makes 120 complete oscillations in 3 minutes is:

Physics

nekit [7.7K]4 years ago
5 0

Answer: 0.67 Hz

Explanation:

Given that:

Number of oscillations = 120

Time taken for oscillations = 3 minutes

Since standard unit of time is seconds, convert 3 minutes to seconds

(If 1 minute = 60 seconds

3 minutes = 3 x 60 = 180 seconds)

Then, recall that frequency is the number of complete cycles or oscillations in one second, and its unit is Hertz.

Thus, frequency = (number of oscillations / time)

F = 120 / 180 seconds

F = 0.67 Hz

Thus, the frequency of a simple pendulum is 0.67Hz

A 2 kg soccer ball is traveling 28.62m/s when it hits the wall and bounces off of the wall with a velocity of 20 m/s. If the wal
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

0.149 s or 0.15 s

Explanation:

let initially ball is moving towards left  hence initial velocity = - 28.62 m/s

final velocity as ball moves right = +20 m/s

force  = rate of change in momentum

force  = mass × change in velocity / time

or time = mass × change in velocity / force

    time = 2× ( 20 -( -28.62)) / 652.36

    time  = 2× ( 20  +28.62)) / 652.36  

time  =   2× 48 .62/652.36

 time =  0.149 s or 0.15 s

The __________muscle raises the eyebrows and causes wrinkles across the forehead.
sweet [91]
Horizontal forehead wrinkles are caused by contraction of the frontalis muscles. The frontalis muscles are two large fanlike muscles that extend from the eyebrow region to the top of the forehead. I think this is the answer

The string constrains the rotational and translational motion of the falling cylinder, given that it doesn't slip. what is the r
Sindrei [870]
<span>Answer: First we need to find the acceleration. torque on cylinder τ = T * r where T is the string tension; T = m(g - a) where a is the acceleration of the cylinder. Then τ = m(g - a)r But also τ = Iα. For a solid cylinder, I = ½mr², and if the string doesn't slip, then α = a / r, so τ = ½mr² * a/r = ½mra. Since τ = τ, we have m(g - a)r = ½mra → m, r cancel, leaving g - a = ½a g = 3a/2 a = 2g/3 where g, of course, is gravitational acceleration. We know that v(t) = a*t, so for our cylinder v(t) = 2gt / 3 ◄ linear velocity and ω = v(t) / r = 2gt / 3r ◄ angular velocity</span>
