Answer:

<em>Force of gravity may not affect a pendulum during its equilibrium state</em>. 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.    

<em>Similarly the tension in the cord will not affect the pendulum</em><em> </em>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.

Jeremy stands on the edge of a cliff. He throws three identical rocks with the same speed. Rock X is thrown vertically upward, r
Neko [114]

Answer:

All the three rocks will hit the ground with same speed.

Explanation:

For rocks X and Z, motion is along a straight line but in case of rock Y, motion is two dimensional. Since velocity is a vector it will be difficult for us to calculate the final velocity in each case. So we should find a way to solve this problems using a scalar which is related to velocity. The best and easy to use scalar related to velocity is kinetic energy. Since there is no air resistance, the total mechanical energy of the stone remains the same. Therefore we can use the concept of conservation of mechanical energy to solve this problem.

i.e. initial mechanical energy = final mechanical energy

let us take the edge of the cliff as initial position and ground as the final position.

We know that

Mechanical energy = Kinetic energy + Potential energy

Initial Mechanical energy = Initial Kinetic energy + Initial Potential energy

we know that

Potential energy = mgh

where,

m = mass of the body

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height from ground

All the three rocks are identical and are thrown from same height. Therefore m and h are same for all the three which implies that the initial potential energy for all the three rocks is same.

Similarly, we know that

Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

where,

m = mass of the body

v = velocity of the body

Since all the rocks are thrown with same speed, v is same for all the rocks. Thus initial kinetic energy is also same for all.

Since initial kinetic energy and Initial Potential energy is same for all the three, Initial Mechanical energy is also same for them.

Next let us consider the final position. At the ground h = 0. Therefore final potential energy of all the three rocks is 0. Thus they will be having only kinetic energy.

By conservation of mechanical energy,

initial mechanical energy = final mechanical energy

i.e.  Initial Kinetic energy + Initial Potential energy =  final Kinetic energy + final Potential energy

final potential energy = 0

thus,

Initial Mechanical energy = Initial Kinetic energy + Initial Potential energy = final Kinetic energy

Initial Mechanical energy = final Kinetic energy

Since Initial Mechanical energy is same for all the three, by the above equation final Kinetic energy is also same for all the three. Since here, kinetic energy is the function of only velocity, final velocity is also same for all the three rocks.

i.e. all the three rocks will hit the ground with same speed.

inysia [295]

Answer:

Best explains Jamming

Explanation:

<em>The deliberate radiation of electromagnetic (EM) energy to degrade or neutralize the radio frequency long-haul supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) communications links, best explains what?</em>

Jamming is defined as the blocking or interference with authorized wireless communications. it's a problem  in personal area network wireless technologies. Jamming can occur inadvertently due to high levels of noise .

Jammers can send radio signals to interfere or disrupt communication flows by by decreasing the signal-to-noise ratio.They use radio frequency to interfere with communications by keeping it busy.
