Answer:

Force of gravity may not affect a pendulum during its equilibrium state. But the gravity can affect the pendulum when a force occurs in any direction of the bob connected to the cord that makes a swing sideways. The gravity of pendulum never stops, it always accelerates. So the gravity affects the pendulum acceleration and speed.

Similarly the tension in the cord will not affect the pendulum but if change in the length of the pendulum while keeping other factors constant changes the length of the period of pendulum. longer pendulum swings with lower frequency than shorter pendulums.

Answer:

A. They are the competing forces that act on a pendulum as it swings.

One of the harmonics on a string 1.30m long has a frequency of 15.60 Hz. The next higher harmonic has a frequency of 23.40 Hz. F

Alja [10]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{(a) 7.800 Hz; (b) 20.3 m/s; 40.6 m/s; 60.8 m/s}}$

Explanation:

a) Fundamental frequency

A harmonic is an integral multiple of the fundamental frequency.

$\dfrac{\text{23.40 Hz}}{\text{15.60 Hz}} = \dfrac{1.500}{1} \approx \dfrac{3}{2}$

$f = \dfrac{\text{24.30 Hz}}{3} = \textbf{7.800 Hz}$

b) Wave speed

(i) Calculate the wavelength

In a fundamental vibration, the length of the string is half the wavelength.

$\begin{array}{rcl}L & = & \dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\\text{1.30 m} & = & \dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\\lambda & = & \text{2.60 m}\\\end{array}$

(b) Calculate the speed s

$\begin{array}{rcl}v_{1}& = & f_{1}\lambda\\& = & \text{7.800 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{20.3 m/s}\\\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{rcl}v_{2}& = & f_{2}\lambda\\& = & \text{15.60 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{40.6 m/s}\\\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{rcl}v_{3}& = & f_{3}\lambda\\& = & \text{23.40 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{60.8 m/s}\\\end{array}$

Which liquid will evaporate the fastest water salt water pepsi and gatorade?

MArishka [77]

The liquid that will evaporate the quickest would be water.
~The rest are mixtures, and have more ingrediants in them, therefore the answer should be water. (in which it has no other ingrediants in it but water itself)

A helium-filled balloon is launched when the temperature at ground level is 27.8°c and the barometer reads 752 mmhg. if the ball

ololo11 [35]

The helium may be treated as an ideal gas, so that
(p*V)/T =constant
where
p = pressure
V = volume
T = temperature.

Note that
7.5006 x 10⁻³ mm Hg = 1 Pa
1 L = 10⁻³ m³

Given:
At ground level,
p₁ = 752 mm Hg
= (752 mm Hg)/(7.5006 x 10⁻³ mm Hg/Pa)
= 1.0026 x 10⁵ Pa
V₁ = 9.47 x 10⁴ L = (9.47 x 10⁴ L)*(10⁻³ m³/L)
= 94.7 m³
T₁ = 27.8 °C = 27.8 + 273 K
= 300.8 K

At 36 km height,
P₂ = 73 mm Hg = 73/7.5006 x 10⁻³ Pa
= 9.7326 x 10³ Pa
T₂ = 235 K

If the volume at 36 km height is V₂, then
V₂ = (T₂/p₂)*(p₁/T₁)*V₁
= (235/9.7326 x 10³)*(1.0026 x 10⁵/300.8)*94.7
= 762.15 m³

Answer: 762.2 m³
