Answer:

The bodies will not come back to their starting point at he same time.

Explanation:

Since they are both pulled back at an angle to the vertical, there is a tangential component of acceleration a = gsinθ

When θ = 4 , a = 9.8sin4 = 0.684 m/s²

When θ = 8 , a = 9.8sin8 = 1.364 m/s²

Using s = ut + 1/2at². Where s is the distance covered and t = time taken, u = initial speed = 0 (assumed since they are both released at the same time)

So s = 0 × t + 1/2at² = 1/2at²

s = 1/2at²

t = √2s/a. Now, since s is the same for both swings, it follows that

t ∝ 1/a. Since their accelerations are different, the bodies will not come back to their starting point at he same time.

Answer:

They will come back at the same time.

Explanation:

The angular velocity equation of ω= \frac{V}{r} where ω is the frequency of the movement, dependent on the angle. But since swings are simple pendulums and their angles of 8 and 4 degrees are small, they will come back to their starting points at the same time.

I hope this answer helps.

Two forces,one of 12 N and another of 24 N,act on a body in such a way that they make an angle of 90degree with each other.Find
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

26.83 N.

Explanation:

If the angle between two vector is 90°, to get the resultant, we use Pythagoras theorem.

a² = b²+c²......................... Equation 1

Where a = R = Resultant, b =  12 N, c = 24 N.

Substitute these values into equation 1

R² = 12²+24²

R² = 144+576

R² = 720

√R² = √720

R = 26.83 N.

Hence, the result of the two force is 26.83 N.
