The period T of a simple pendulum depends on the length L of the pendulum and the acceleration of gravity g (dimensions L/P). (a

) Find a simple combination of L and g that has the dimensions of time. (b) Check the dependence of the period T on the length L by measuring the period (time for a complete swing back and forth) of a pendulum for two different values of L. (c) The correct formula relating T to L and g involves a constant that is a multiple of 1 T, and cannot be obtained by the dimensional analysis of Part (a). It can be found by experiment as in Part (b) if g is known. Using the value g

Answer:

a). L= meters, g= \frac{m}{s^{2} }

b). L= 5cm  T=0.448

    L= 10 m  T=6.34

c).  Constant= \frac{2*\pi }{\sqrt{g} }=\frac{2*\pi }{\sqrt{9.8} }=2.007089923

Explanation:

a).

T= 2*\pi  \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} } = 2*\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{\frac{m}{s^{2} } } } \\T= 2*\pi \sqrt{\frac{s^{2}*m }{m} }=2*\pi  \sqrt{s^{2}  } \\T= s

b).

L_{1}= 5 cm, 5cm *\frac{1m}{100 cm} = 0.05 m

T=2*\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

T=2*\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.05}{9.8} }= 0.448s

L_{1}= 10 m

T=2*\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

T=2*\pi \sqrt{\frac{10}{9.8} }= 6.43s

c).

g= 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

T=2*\pi *\frac{\sqrt{L} }{\sqrt{g} } =T=2*\pi *\frac{\sqrt{L} }{\sqrt{9.8} } \\T= 2*\pi \frac{1}{\sqrt{9.8}} *\sqrt{L}\\T= 2.007089923*\sqrt{L}

The near point of a person's eye is 71.4 cm. To see objects clearly at a distance of 24.0 cm, what should be the focal length an
yuradex [85]

Answer:

The focal length of the appropriate corrective lens is 35.71 cm.

The power of the appropriate corrective lens is 0.028 D.

Explanation:

The expression for the lens formula is as follows;

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}

Here, f is the focal length, u is the object distance and v is the image distance.

It is given in the problem that the given lens is corrective lens. Then, it will form an upright and virtual image at the near point of person's eye. The near point of a person's eye is 71.4 cm. To see objects clearly at a distance of 24.0 cm, the corrective lens is used.

Put v= -71.4 cm and u= 24.0 cm in the above expression.

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{24}+\frac{1}{-71.4}

\frac{1}{f}=0.028

f= 35.71 cm

Therefore, the focal length of the corrective lens is 35.71 cm.

The expression for the power of the lens is as follows;

p=\frac{1}{f}

Here, p is the power of the lens.

Put f= 35.71 cm.

p=\frac{1}{35.71}

p=0.028 D

Therefore, the power of the corrective lens is 0.028 D.

Two trains travel toward each other on the same track, beginning 100 miles apart. One train travels at 40 miles per hour; the ot
Paladinen [302]

D = distance between th two trains at the start of the motion = 100 miles

V = speed of the faster train towards slower train = 60 mph

v = speed of the slower train towards faster train = 40 mph

t = time taken by the two trains to collide = ?

time taken by the two trains to collide is given as

t = D/(V + v)

t = 100/(60 + 40) = 1 h

v' = speed of the bird = 90 mph

d = distance traveled by the bird

distance traveled by the bird is given as

d = v' t

d = 90 x 1

d = 90 miles

A student of weight 652 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of person W=652\ N

At highest point Magnitude of the normal force F=585\ N

net force at highest point

F_{net}=W+F_c

where F_c= centripetal force

F_c=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

F_{net}=F_{n}= Normal Force

585=652+F_c

F_c=-67\ N

Negative sign shows force is in upward direction

At bottom point centripetal force is towards the bottom

F_n=F_c+W

F_n=652+67

F_n=719\ N

What is the mass moment of inertia of a 20kg sphere with a radius of 0.2m about a point on the sphere's perimeter
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

I = M R^2 is the moment of inertia about a point that is a distance R from the center of mass (uniform distributed mass).

The moment  of inertia about the center of a sphere is 2 / 5 M R^2.

By the parallel axis theorem the moment of inertia about a point on the rim of the sphere is  I = 2/5 M R^2 + M R^2 = 7/5 M R^2

I = 7/5 * 20 kg * .2^2 m = 1.12 kg m^2
