At which location does the pendulum have the least gravitational potential energy? Why?

Physics
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

At point 2

Explanation:

This is because at point 2 the ball is moving very slow, which gives it very little potential energy

A new planet has been discovered and given the name Planet X . The mass of Planet X is estimated to be one-half that of Earth, a
harina [27]

Answer:

    vₐ = v_c  ( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )

Explanation:

To calculate the escape velocity let's use the conservation of energy

starting point. On the surface of the planet

          Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v_c² - G Mm / R

final point. At a very distant point

         Em_f = U = - G Mm / R₂

energy is conserved

           Em₀ = Em_f

           ½ m v_c² - G Mm / R = - G Mm / R₂

           v_c² = 2 G M (1 /R -  1 /R₂)

if we consider the speed so that it reaches an infinite position R₂ = ∞

           v_c = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

now indicates that the mass and radius of the planet changes slightly

            M ’= M + ΔM = M ( 1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M} )

            R ’= R + ΔR = R ( 1 + \frac{\Delta R}{R} )

we substitute

           vₐ = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} } \  \frac{\sqrt{1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M} } }{ \sqrt{1+ \frac{ \Delta R}{R} } }

         

let's use a serial expansion

           √(1 ±x) = 1 ± ½ x +…

we substitute

         vₐ = v_ c ( (1 + \frac{1}{2}  \frac{\Delta M}{M} )  \ ( 1 - \frac{1}{2}  \frac{\Delta R}{R} ))

we make the product and keep the terms linear

        vₐ = v_c  ( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )

Ahmad is riding his bicycle. He finds that he can accelerate from rest at 0.44 m/s^2 for 5 s to reach a speed of 2.2 m/s. The to
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

1) The force Christian can exert on his bicycle before picking up the the cargo is 529.74 N

2) The force Christian can exert on his bicycle after picking up the the cargo is 647.46 N

Therefore, Christian has to exert more force on his bike after picking up the cargo

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of Christian and his bicycle = 54 kg

The mass of the cargo = 12 kg

1) The force Christian can exert on his bicycle before picking up the the cargo = Mass of Christian and his bicycle × Acceleration due to gravity

∴ The force Christian can exert on his bicycle before picking up the the cargo = 54 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 529.74 N

2) The force Christian can exert on his bicycle after picking up the the cargo = (54 + 12) kg × 9.81 m/s² = 647.46 N

Therefore, Christian has to exert more force on his bike after picking up the cargo.

Using diagram differentiate between solenoid and a toroid
damaskus [11]

The Toroid is form when you have wound conductor around circular body. In this case you have magnatic field inside the core but you dont have any poles because circular body dont have ends. This can be used where you want minimum flux leakage and dont need magnatic poles. i.e. toroidal inductor, toroidal transformer.


The Solenoid is forn when you wound conductor around body with limb. In this case magnatic field creates two poles N and S. Solenoids have little bit flux leakage. This used where you want magnatic poles and flux leakage is not an issue. i.e. relay, motors, electromagnates.

1 == toroid


2= solenoid

A cosmic catastrophic event occurred that caused the tilt of the Earth's axis relative to its plane of orbit to increase from 23
Gnom [1K]

Answer: The elimination of seasonal variations

Explanation:

Since the cosmic catastrophic event which occurred led to the tilt of the Earth's axis relative to the plane of orbit to increase from 23.5° to 90°, the most obvious effect of this change would be the elimination of seasonal variations.

It should be noted that seasonal variation refers to the variation in a time series that's within a year which is repeated. The cause of seasonal variation can include rainfall, temperature, etc.
