1. How would the motion of a pendulum change at high altitude like a high mountain top? How would the motion change under weight

less conditions?
Physics
1 answer:
gavmur [86]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A pendulum moves with the principle of small angles that show that the frequency and period of the pendulum are not dependent on the initial angular displacement of the mass it carries.

On a high mountain top, a reduced force of gravity is exerted on the mass, therefore, producing long periods of oscillation on the pendulum.

However, under weightless conditions where gravity is zero, the pendulum will not work as what keeps the mass in oscillation is gravity. If therefore gravity is absent there can be no oscillation.

8. List three temperature scales. Then write the boiling and freezing
Tomtit [17]

Explanation:

For most temperature scales, the boiling point of water and the freezing point is used to calibrate it.

Three known temperature scales;

  • Kelvin scale
  • Celcius scale
  • Fahrenheit scale

                               Kelvin scale              Celcius scale          Fahrenheit scale

Freezing point             273K                            0°C                        32°F

Melting point                373K                          100°C                     212°F

Am i correct? If not then which one
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Yes, it's correct

Explanation:

Newton's second Law states that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force applied on it, according to the equation:

F=ma

where

F is the net force on the object

m is the mass of the object

a is the acceleration of the object

We can re-arrange the previous equation in order to solve explicitely for a, the acceleration, and we find:

F=ma\\\frac{F}{m}=\frac{ma}{m}\\\frac{F}{m}=a\\a=\frac{F}{m}

So, we see that the acceleration is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Consider a system to be two train cars traveling toward each other. What is the total momentum of the system before the train ca
Brut [27]

Let say the two train cars are of masses m_1 and m_2

now if the speed of two cars are v_1 and v_2

then we can say that the momentum of two cars before they collide is given by

P = m_1v_1 - m_2v_2

here two cars are moving in opposite direction so we can say that the net momentum is subtraction of two cars momentum.

Now since in these two car motion there is no external force on them while they collide

So the momentum of two cars are always conserved.

hence we can say that the final momentum of two cars will be same after collision as it is before collision

P = m_1v_1 - m_2v_2
