A small sphere with mass m is attached to a massless rod of length L that is pivoted at the top, forming a simple pendulum. The

pendulum is pulled to one side so that the rod is at an angle θ from the vertical, and released from rest.
a. Show the pendulum just after it is released. Draw vectors representing the forces acting on the small sphere and the acceleration of the sphere. Accuracy counts! At this point, what is the linear acceleration of the sphere?
b. Repeat part (a) for the instant when the pendulum rod is at an angle 9/2 from the vertical.
c. Repeat part (a) for the instant when the pendulum rod is vertical. At this point, what is the linear speed of the sphere?

Answer:

a) see attached, a = g sin θ

b)

c)   v = √(2gL (1-cos θ))

Explanation:

In the attached we can see the forces on the sphere, which are the attention of the bar that is perpendicular to the movement and the weight of the sphere that is vertical at all times. To solve this problem, a reference system is created with one axis parallel to the bar and the other perpendicular to the rod, the weight of decomposing in this reference system and the linear acceleration is given by

          Wₓ = m a

          W sin θ = m a

          a = g sin θ

b) The diagram is the same, the only thing that changes is the angle that is less

                θ' = 9/2  θ

             

c) At this point the weight and the force of the bar are in the same line of action, so that at linear acceleration it is zero, even when the pendulum has velocity v, so it follows its path.

The easiest way to find linear speed is to use conservation of energy

Highest point

            Em₀ = mg h = mg L (1-cos tea)

Lowest point

          Emf = K = ½ m v²

          Em₀ = Emf

          g L (1-cos θ) = v² / 2

              v = √(2gL (1-cos θ))

A horse running at 3 m/s speeds up with a constant acceleration of 5 m/s2. How fast is the
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The horse is going at 12.72 m/s speed.

Explanation:

The initial speed of the horse (u) = 3 m/s

The acceleration of the horse (a)= 5 m/s^{2}

The displacement( it is assumed it is moving in a straight line)(s)= 15.3 m

Applying the second equation of motion to find out the time,

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

15.3=3t+2.5t^{2}

2.5t^{2}+3t-15.3=0

Solving this quadratic equation, we get time(t)=1.945 s, the other negative time is neglected.

Now applying first equation of motion, to find out the final velocity,

v=u+at

v=3+1.945*5

v=3+9.72

v=12.72 m/s

The horse travels at a speed of 12.72 m/s after covering the given distance.

HOW DOES A GRAPH HELP YOU SEE ANOMALOUS DATA?
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Anomalies consist of one or more modifications, insertions or deletions. As was described in Section 3.1, there are only three types of changes that can be made to a graph. Therefore, anomalies that consist of structural changes to a graph must consist of one of these types. Assumption 4.

how can changing the kinetic energy of an object cause energy to be transferred to or from the object
melisa1 [442]

Kinetic Energy. Energy is transferred from one object to another when a reaction takes place. Energy comes in many forms and can be transferred from one object to another as heat, light, or motion, to name a few. For the blue ball to move to the position of the green ball, energy must be given to the blue ball.

Researchers in the Antarctic measure the temperature to be -32°F. What is this temperature on the following scales?(a) the Celsi
Illusion [34]
Answer:

a) -35.6°C

b) 237.4 K

Explanation:

To convert temperature from degree celsius to degree fahrenheit, use the formula below:

T_c=\frac{5}{9}(T_f-32)

a) Therefore to convert -32°F to celsius, substitute it into the celsius

\begin{gathered} T_c=\frac{5}{9}(-32-32) \\  \\ T_c=\frac{5}{9}(-64) \\  \\ T_c=-35.6^0C \end{gathered}

b) To covert to the Kelvin scale, use the formula below

\begin{gathered} T_k=T_c+273 \\  \\ T_k=-35.6+273 \\  \\ T_k=237.4K \\  \end{gathered}
