The image shows a pendulum that is released from rest at point A. Shari tells her friend that no energy transformation occurs as

the pendulum swings between point B and point D.
What is the best response that Shari’s friend could make?

She could agree with Shari because the pendulum is at the same height and would have the same gravitational potential energy at both positions.

She could agree with Shari because the pendulum has the same amount of mechanical energy throughout its swing.

She could disagree with Shari because the pendulum converts kinetic energy into gravitational potential energy, then back into kinetic energy.

She could disagree with Shari because the pendulum converts gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy, then back into gravitational potential energy.

Answer:

She could disagree with Shari because the pendulum converts gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy, then back into gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

The energy of the pendulum is constantly converted from gravitational potential to kinetic, and back.

In fact:

- the gravitational potential energy of the pendulum is given by:

U=mgh

where m is the mass of the pendulum, g is the gravitational acceleration, and h is the height of the pendulum above the ground

- The kinetic energy of the pendulum is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where v is the speed of the pendulum.

Therefore, when it is at a higher position, the pendulum has a greater potential energy, while when it is at a lower position, the pendulum has a greater kinetic energy (because its speed is higher).

In this example:

- when the pendulum swings from B to C, part of its gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy (because the height decreases but the speed increases), and when the pendulum goes from C to D, the kinetic energy is converted back into gravitational potential energy (because the height increases and the speed decreases)

In an interference pattern, the intensity is Group of answer choices smaller in regions of constructive interference than in reg
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The same in both the regions of constructive interference and the regions of destructive interference.

Explanation:

Interference is a phenomenon which occurs when two waves meet while moving along the same medium . The amplitude formed as a result of the interference could be greater, lower, or the same amplitude.

Constructive and destructive interference result from the interaction of waves that are correlated or coherent with each other. This is because arose from the same source or they have the same or nearly the same frequency.

The waves being coherent, arising from the same source and having the same frequency explains why it’s the same in both the regions of constructive interference and the regions of destructive interference.

What is inertia?by Walter Levin..<br>​
Tom [10]

Inertia is directly proportional to mass.

What is Walter Lewin famous for?

Walter Hendrik Gustav Lewin (born January 29, 1936) is a Dutch astrophysicist and former professor of physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Lewin earned his doctorate in nuclear physics in 1965 at the Delft University of Technology and was a member of MIT's physics faculty for 43 years beginning in 1966 until his retirement in 2009.

According to Walter Levin,

The concept of moment of inertia is demonstrated by rolling a series of cylinders down an inclined plane.

Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to a change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion. An aspect of this property is the tendency of objects to keep moving in a straight line at a constant speed when no forces act upon them.

By rolling a series of cylinders down on an inclined plane , he demonstrated that a cylinder have a smooth friction.

He compares the rolling cylinder by using hollow cylinder and a heavy cylinder , and finalize the result that a hollow cylinder moves slowly but the heavy cylinder move faster.

Hence , By doing this experiment he explained about the inertia that Inertia depend on the mass of the object. As the heavy the object it will take more time to travel or move.

Define bond length using your own words​
Brut [27]

Answer:

the free encyclopedia. In molecular geometry, bond length or bond distance is defined as the average distance between nuclei of two bonded atoms in a molecule. It is a transferable property of a bond between atoms of fixed types, relatively independent of the rest of the molecule.

Explain, briefly, what the electrical field inside a microwave oven does to heat food.
yarga [219]

Answer:

Inside the strong metal box, there is a microwave generator called a magnetron. When you start cooking, the magnetron takes electricity from the power outlet and converts it into high-powered, 12cm (4.7 inch) radio waves. Thus the microwaves pass their energy onto the molecules in the food, rapidly heating it up.May 3, 2018
