A grandfather clock is "losing" time because its pendulum moves too slowly. Assume that the pendulum is a massive bob at the end

of a string.
The motion of this pendulum can be sped up by:

a) decreasing the mass of the bob.
b) increasing the mass of the bob.
c) lengthening the string.
d) shortening the string.

The motion of this pendulum can be sped up by shortening the string. <em>(d)</em>

Answer:

d) shortening the string

Explanation:

Time period of a pendulum clock is dependent on two factors namely:length and acceleration due to gravity.

When a clock loses time, the time period of the pendulum clock increases.

This however can be corrected by decreasing the length of the pendulum.The time period of the pendulum clock is not dependent on the mass of the bob. The time period of the pendulum clock can be corrected only by changing the length of the pendulum string.

Answer:

wavelenght

Explanation:

The wavelength is the spatial period of a wave, analogous to the temporal period, it is the distance between two consecutive points with maximum amplitude that are repeated in space . In the waves of the sea, the wavelength is easily observed in the separation between two consecutive ridges.

1) how does reflection differ from diffraction?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: (1) The correct answer is A.

(2) The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

(1)

Reflection is the sending back of light from the surface without absorbing it. In the reflection phenomenon, the wave does not continue moving forward.

Diffraction is the bending of the light around the obstacle. In the diffraction phenomenon, the wave travels forward after striking around the obstacle.

Therefore, the correct answer is A.

(2)

Amplitude is the maximum displacement in the medium from the rest position.

The amount of energy is related to the amplitude. Amplitude is related to the amount of energy carried by the wave. Low energy wave is characterized by a low amplitude. High energy wave is characterized by a high amplitude.

Therefore, the correct option is D.
