A pendulum is swinging back and forth with a period of 2.0 seconds here on Earth. This pendulum is then brought to the Moon. Wha

LenKa [72]

Answer: The period of the pendulum will increase. Because of less gravity

Explanation:

Since the force of gravity is less on the Moon, the pendulum would swing slower at the same length and angle and its frequency would be less. Hence more time period will be experienced by the pendulum. On the moon, the acceleration due to gravity g is less when compared to that of the earth.

We see a full moon by reflected sunlight. How much earlier did the light that enters our eye leave the sun? the earth-moon and e

Tju [1.3M]

The time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth will be 8.4 minutes.

To find the answer, we need to know about the distance travelled by light.

<h3>How to find the time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth?</h3>

So, in order to solve this problem, we must first know how far the moon is from Earth and how far the Sun is from the moon.
These distances are given as 3.8×10^5 km (Earth-Moon) and 1.5×10^8 km (Sun- Earth).
Since the Moon and Sun are on opposite sides of Earth during a full moon, the light's distance traveled equals,

$d=(1.5*10^8km)+2(3.8*10^5km)=1.51*10^8km=1.51*10^{11}m$

As we know that light travels at a speed of 300,000 km per second. then, the time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth will be,

$t=\frac{1.51*10^{11}}{3*10^8}=503.33 s\\t=\frac{503.33}{60}=8.4min$

Thus, the time it takes for the light from the Sun to reach Earth and be recognized as 8.4 minutes.

Suppose a free-fall ride at an amusement park starts at rest and is in free fall. What is the velocity of the ride after 2.3 s?

horsena [70]

Answer:

V = a * t = 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.3 s = 22.5 m/s velocity after 2.3 s

S = 1/2 g t^2 since initial speed is zero

S = 1/2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 5.29 s^2 = 25.9 m
