The force of the collisions creates pressure on the container. ... Explain why atmospheric pressure changes as depth changes. Atmospheric pressure increases as depth increases because at lower levels of the atmosphere, there is more air above that is being pulled down by gravitational force.

1. A pendulum has a period of 3 seconds. What's its frequency? 2. A pendulum has a frequency of 0.25 Hz. What's its period? 3. A
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

(1) 0.333 Hz

(2) 4 sec

(3) 2 sec, 0.5 Hz

Explanation:

(1) We have given time period of pendulum is 3 sec

So T = 3 sec

Frequency will be equal to f=\frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{3}=0.333Hz

(2) Frequency of the pendulum is given f = 0.25 Hz

Time period is equal to T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.25}=4sec

(3) It is given that a pendulum makes 10 back and forth swings in 20 seconds

So time taken to complete 1 back and forth swings = =\frac{20}{10}=2sec

So time period T = 2 sec

Frequency will be equal to f=\frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{2}=0.5Hz

The net force acting on a 5 kg discus is 50 n. what is the acceleration of the discus
Lyrx [107]
Answer: 10 m/s^2

Explanation:

1) The second law of Newton gives the definition and formula to calculate the net force:

Net force acting on an object = mass * acceleration.

2) From that, when you know the net force acting of the object and its mass, you can solve for the acceleration:

acceleration = Net force / mass

acceleration = 50 N / 5 kg = 10 m/s^2, which is the answer.
