How long must a simple pendulum be if it is to make exactly one swing per four seconds? (That is, one complete oscillation takes

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Length of the pendulum will be 3.987 m

Explanation:

We have given time period of the pendulum T = 8 sec

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.81m/sec^2$

We have to find the length of the simple pendulum

We know that time period of the simple pendulum is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

$8=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{l}{9.81}}$

$l=3.987m$

So length of the pendulum will be 3.987 m

azamat

No. the answer to the question if can an argon atom undergo vibrational motion is no. it can not even spin either. the argon atom, or the argon is a chemical element that is the third most abundant gas in the earth's atmosphere. it is ore than twice as abundance as water vapor. Thank you for this question.

2. At noon, ship A was 12 nautical miles due north of ship B. Ship A was sailing south at 12 knots (nautical miles per hour; a n

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the reference origin be location of ship B in the beginning. We can then create the equation of motion for ship A and ship B in term of time t (hour):

A = 12 - 12t

B = 9t

Since the 2 ship motions are perpendicular with each other, we can calculate the distance between 2 ships in term of t

$d = \sqrt{A^2 + B^2} = \sqrt{(12 - 12t)^2 + (9t)^2}$

For the ships to sight each other, distance must be 5 or smaller

$d \leq 5$

$\sqrt{(12 - 12t)^2 + (9t)^2} \leq 5$

$(12 - 12t)^2 + (9t)^2 \leq 25$

$144t^2 - 288t + 144 + 81t^2 - 25 \leq 0$

$225t^2 - 288t + 119 \leq 0$

$(15t)^2 - (2*15*9.6)t + 9.6^2 + 26.84 \leq 0$

$(15t^2 - 9.6)^2 + 26.84 \leq 0$

Since $(15t^2 - 9.6)^2 \geq 0$ then

$(15t^2 - 9.6)^2 + 26.84 > 0$

So our equation has no solution, the answer is no, the 2 ships never sight each other.

1hp is written in electric motor what does it mean

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Explanation:

The horsepower (hp) is a unit in the foot-pound-second ( fps ) or English system, sometimes used to express the rate at which mechanical energy is expended. It was originally defined as 550 foot-pounds per second (ft-lb/s). A power level of 1 hp is approximately equivalent to 746 watt s (W) or 0.746 kilowatt s (kW).
