How would the period of a simple pendulum be affected if it were located on the moon instead of the earth?

Physics
1 answer:
OlgaM077 [116]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

On moon time period will become 2.45 times of the time period on earth

Explanation:

Time period of simple pendulum is equal to T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}} ....eqn 1 here l is length of the pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity on earth

As when we go to moon, acceleration due to gravity on moon is \frac{1}{6} times os acceleration due to gravity on earth

So time period of pendulum on moon is equal to

T_{moon}=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{\frac{g}{6}}}=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{6l}{g}} --------eqn 2

Dividing eqn 2 by eqn 1

\frac{T_{moon}}{T}=\sqrt{\frac{6l}{g}\times \frac{g}{l}}

T_{moon}=\sqrt{6}T=2.45T

So on moon time period will become 2.45 times of the time period on earth

What is the current in a series circuit that has two resistors (4.0 ohms and 7.5 ohms) and a power source of 9.0 volts?
Olin [163]

-- First, we have to decide how to handle the two resistors.

The effective resistance of resistors in series is the sum
of their individual resistances.  That is, they act like a single
resistor, whose resistance is the sum of all of them.

So in this question, the 4.0 ohms and the 7.5 ohms act like a
single resistor of 11.5 ohms.

-- The current in the circuit is

                       (the supply voltage) / (the total resistance)

                   =                (9.0 volts)  /  (11.5 ohms)

                   =                      0.783... Ampere        (rounded)

A plank of length L=2.200 m and mass M=4.00 kg is suspended horizontally by a thin cable at one end and to a pivot on a wall at
Elenna [48]

The tension in the cable is 23.2 N

<h3>What is the tension in the string?</h3>

The tension in the cable can be resolved into horizontal and vertical forces Tcosθ and Tsinθ respectively.

Tcosθ, is acting perpendicularly, Tcosθ = 0

Taking moments about the pivot:

Tsinθ * 2.2 = 4 * 9.8 * 0.7

Solving for θ;

θ = tan⁻¹(1.4/2.2) = 32.5°

T = 27.44/(sin 32.5 * 2.2)

T = 23.2 N

In conclusion, the tension in the cable is determined by taking moments about the pivot.

In what type of change is matter not destroyed
Margaret [11]

There are two types of change in matter: physical change and chemical change. ... This is called the Law of Conservation of Matter. It states that matter can never be created or destroyed, only changed and rearranged.
