How long is a pendulum with a period of 1.0 S on the moon which has 1/6 of the earths gravity

1 answer:

7 0

For small deflections, T = 2*pi*sqrt(L / g) where T is period, L is length and g is gravity. Setting the equations to the same period, 2*pi*sqrt(3.85 / g) = 2*pi*(L / (1/6 * g)) The equation reduces to 3.85 m = 6 * L so L = 0.642 m chrsclrk · 7 years ago

Wilma can mow a lawn in 80 minutes. Rocky can mow the same lawn in 120 minutes. Construct an equation that would allow you to de

xeze [42]

Answer:

$t = 96 minutes$

Explanation:

Time to mow 1 lawn by Wilma is 80 minutes

so work done in 1 minute by Wilma is given as

$W_1 = \frac{1}{80}$

Similarly Rocky mow same lawn in 120 minute

so work done in 1 minute by Rocky is given as

$W_2 = \frac{1}{120}$

now we know that they both worked by "t" time

so total work performed by them

$W = \frac{t}{80} + \frac{t}{120}$

they both mow 2 lawns then it is given as

$2 = (\frac{1}{80} + \frac{1}{120})t$

$t = 96 minutes$

PLEASE HELP! I don't get it at all! Speed is one thing; distance is another. Where is the arrow you shoot up at 50m/s when it ru

LuckyWell [14K]

I got you b, V(final)^2=V(initial+2acceleration*displacement
So this turns to (0m/s)^2=(50m/s)^2+2(9.8)(d) so just flip it all around to isolate d so you get
-(50m/s)^2/2(9.8) = d so you get roughly 12.7555 meters up

A mass of 3.6 kg oscillate on a horizontal spring with a spring constant of 160 N/m.

Darya [45]

Answer:

48.7 J

Explanation:

For a mass-spring system, there is a continuous conversion of energy between elastic potential energy and kinetic energy.

In particular:

- The elastic potential energy is maximum when the system is at its maximum displacement

- The kinetic energy is maximum when the system passes through the equilibrium position

Therefore, the maximum kinetic energy of the system is given by:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass

v is the speed at equilibrium position

In this problem:

m = 3.6 kg

v = 5.2 m/s

Therefore, the maximum kinetic energy is:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(3.6)(5.2)^2=48.7 J$

The answer is destructive interference. You have this for both C and D. I suspect one of C or D is supposed to be constructive interference... But destructive interference is the answer
