Answer:

3.7 m/s^2

Explanation:

The period of a pendulum is given by:

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

where L is the length of the pendulum and g is the free-fall acceleration on the planet.

In this problem, we know that the period of the pendulum on Earth is:

T_e = 1.50 s

while the period of the same pendulum on Mars is

T_m = 2.45 s

And since the length of the pendulum L does not change, we can write:

\frac{T_e}{T_m}=\frac{2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g_e}}}{2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g_m}}}=\sqrt{\frac{g_m}{g_e}}

where

g_e = 9.8 m/s^2 is the free-fall acceleration on Earth

g_m = ? is the free-fall acceleration on Mars

Re-arranging the equation and substituting numbers, we find:

g_m = \frac{T_e^2}{T_m^2}g_e=\frac{(1.50 s)^2}{(2.45 s)^2}(9.8 m/s^2)=3.7 m/s^2

The vertical components of velocity is 10.35 m/s and the horizontal component of velocity is 38.6 m/s

<h3>What are the components of velocity?</h3>

We know that velocity is a vector quantity, a vector often can be resolved into its components. The vertical components is V sinθ while the horizontal component is vcosθ.

Hence;

Vertical component = 40 m/s sin 15 degrees = 10.35 m/s

Horizontal component = 40 cos 15 degrees = 38.6 m/s

how will resistance change when the voltage increases in an electric circuit if the current remains constant
Yakvenalex [24]
V=IR
Potential Difference (v)= Current (A) * Resistance (Ω)
As V increases, R also increases.

A cylindrical conductor of length l and uniform area of cross section A has a resistance R. Another conductor of length 2l and r
ella [17]

Answer:

2A

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire can be defined as

R = ρL/A

Where,

ρ is Resistivity  - the factor in the resistance which takes into account the nature of the material is the resistivity

L is Length of the conductor

A is Area of cross section of the conductor.

R₁/R₂ = (L₁/L₂) × (A₂/A₁)  ----> rearranging it for A

A₂ = (R₁/R₂) × (L₂/L₁) × A₁  

A₂ = (R/R) × (2L/L) × A  

A₂ = 2A

Therefore, cross section area of another conductor must be 2A
