Mass does not affect the pendulum's swing. The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.
Answer:
B is right at first I thought I was wrong
Explanation:
Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force. This tendency to resist changes in a state of motion is inertia.
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
The astronaut will know due to the light from the explosion.
Explanation:
Sound and vibrations require a medium such as air to travel through. Space, there is no air. Only a vacuum. So sound and vibrations are unable to travel. Light requires no medium to travel. It can go through a vacuum.
Therefore the Astronaut will see a bright flash of light as it travels from the explosion to outer space. It is also important to note that light can travel very far because nothing else interacts with its wave particles and as such, it cannot be impeded.
Cheers!
