Answer:
The frequency of vibration will be unchanged.
Explanation:
The frequency of oscillation of a simple pendulum is given by
where, is the acceleration due to gravity and
is the length of the pendulum.
It can be seen from the formula that the frequency of the pendulum is independent of the mass.
Thus, the frequency of vibration will be same.
Answer:
the maximum mass that can hang without sinking is 2.93 kg
Explanation:
Given: details:
sphere diameter d = 20 cm
so, radius r = 10 cm = 0.10 m
density of the Styrofoam sphere D = 300 kg/m3
sphere volume
=4.18*10^{-3} m^3
we know that
mass M = Density * Volume
= (300)(4.18*10^{-3} m3)
=1.25 kg
mass of the water displace = volume *density of water
= 4.18*10^{-3} m3 * 1000
= 4.18 kg
The difference between the mass of water and mass of styrofoam is the amount of mass that the sphere can support
=4.18 kg -1.25 kg
= 2.93 kg
