How long must a simple pendulum be if it is to make exactly one swing per four seconds? (That is, one complete oscillation takes

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Length of the pendulum will be 3.987 m

Explanation:

We have given time period of the pendulum T = 8 sec

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.81m/sec^2$

We have to find the length of the simple pendulum

We know that time period of the simple pendulum is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

$8=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{l}{9.81}}$

$l=3.987m$

So length of the pendulum will be 3.987 m

The Displacement is 5m. We found that using the

Llana [10]

Answer:

A vector can be written as:

(R, θ)

Where R is the magnitude, in this case, we know that the magnitude of the displacement is 5m

Then:

R = 5m

and θ defines the direction, it's an angle measured from the positive x-axis.

(In the image, θ would be the angle located at the point A)

Now, if you look at the image, you can see a triangle rectangle.

Where the adjacent cathetus has a length of 4,

the opposite cathetus has a length of 3 units

the hypotenuse has a length of 5 units.

So we can use any trigonometric rule to find the value of θ, like:

sin(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/hypotenuse

Then:

sin(θ) = 3m/5m

Now we can use the inverse sin function, Asin(x), in both sides

Asin( sin(θ)) = θ = Asin( 3/5) = 36.87°

then the vector is:

(5m, 36.87°)

Now, if we define the positive y-axis as the North, and the positive x-axis as the East.

This vector would point at 36.87° North of East.

(or almost Northeast)

A plastic film moves over two drums. During a 4-s interval the speed of the tape is increased uniformly from v0 = 2ft/s to v1 =

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Question 1)

a) The speed of the drums is increased from 2 ft/s to 4 ft/s in 4 s. From the below kinematic equations the acceleration of the drums can be determined.

$v_1 = v_0 + at \\4 = 2 + 4a\\a = 0.5~ft/s^2$

This is the linear acceleration of the drums. Since the tape does not slip on the drums, by the rule of rolling without slipping,

$v = \omega R\\a = \alpha R$

where α is the angular acceleration.

In order to continue this question, the radius of the drums should be given.

Let us denote the radius of the drums as R, the angular acceleration of drum B is

α = 0.5/R.

b) The distance travelled by the drums can be found by the following kinematics formula:

$v_1^2 = v_0^2 + 2ax\\4^2 = 2^2 + 2(0.5)x\\x = 12 ft$

One revolution is equal to the circumference of the drum. So, total number of revolutions is

$x / (2\pi R) = 6/(\pi R)$

Question 2)

a) In a rocket propulsion question, the acceleration of the rocket can be found by the following formula:

$a = \frac{dv}{dt} = -\frac{v_{fuel}}{m}\frac{dm}{dt} = -\frac{13000}{2600}25 = 125~ft/s^2$

b) $a = -\frac{v_{fuel}}{m}\frac{dm}{dt} = - \frac{13000}{400}25 = 812.5~ft/s^2$

Which describes the best approach when conducting a scientific experiment

IgorC [24]

When conducting and experiment you want to have a notebook and something to write down notes with so you can keep everything organized and proper, and to not miss anything in the experiment. Also you want to have everything in order of the way it should be in.

I hope you found this helpful!

What is the length of 0.005 mm in kilometers?

ZanzabumX [31]

The answer would be $5*10^9
$ .

If we divide $\frac{5*10^9}{1*10^6}$ , it gives us 0.005!
