Hello!
To calculate the speed(velocity) of a moving object, we can divide the displacement by the time interval in which the displacement occurred.
This is based off the formula:
v=d/t
Where v=velocity, d=total displacement, t=Time interval
Hope this helps. Any question please just ask. Thank you kindly.
When the two plates converge or collide they start to build pressure and slowly they lift up and create mountains
I’m assuming it is kinetic energy. When velocity increases there is acceleration therefore it’s moving which then means it has kinetic energy
Answer:
a. 86.80 m
b. i. The mass of the bob
ii. The length of the pendulum
Explanation:
a. Determine the height of the smokestack.
Using T = 2π√(L/g) where T = period of pendulum = 18.7 s, L = length of pendulum = height of smokestack and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².
So, making L subject of the formula, we have
T = 2π√(L/g)
T/2π = √(L/g)
squaring both sides, we have
(T/2π)² = L/g
L = (T/2π)²g
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
L = (T/2π)²g
L = (18.7 s/2π)²(9.8 m/s²)
L = (2.976 s)²(9.8 m/s²)
L = 8.857 s² × 9.8 m/s²
L = 86.796 m
L ≅ 86.80 m
b. What factors influence the period of a simple pendulum
The factors that influence the period of a simple pendulum are
i. The mass of the bob
ii. The length of the pendulum
