When this pendulum swings, at which point is its kinetic energy the highest? *

Physics
1 answer:
Eddi Din [679]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The bottom/center of the pendulum

Explanation:

As it swings, the pendulum will have maximum potential energy at the top of its arc.

As it comes back towards the center that potential energy will convert into kinetic energy until it reaches the middle of its swing (when the pendulum is fully vertical) where all potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy.

This is when the kinetic energy is the highest

As it begins to move away from the center of its arc, that kinetic energy will convert into potential energy again, and the process repeats

Assume that a pendulum used to drive a grandfather clock has a length L0=1.00m and a mass M at temperature T=20.00°C. It can be
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The period will change a 0,036 % relative to its initial state

Explanation:

When the rod expands by heat its moment of inertia increases, but since there was no applied rotational force to the pendulum , the angular momentum remains constant. In other words:

ζ= Δ(Iω)/Δt, where ζ is the applied torque, I is moment of inertia, ω is angular velocity and t is time.

since there was no torque ( no rotational force applied)

ζ=0 → Δ(Iω)=0 → I₂ω₂ -I₁ω₁ = 0 → I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂

thus

I₂/I₁ =ω₁/ω₂ , (2) represents final state and (1) initial state

we know also that ω=2π/T , where T is the period of the pendulum

I₂/I₁ =ω₁/ω₂ = (2π/T₁)/(2π/T₂)= T₂/T₁

Therefore to calculate the change in the period we have to calculate the moments of inertia. Looking at tables, can be found that the moment of inertia of a rod that rotates around an end is

I = 1/3 ML²

Therefore since the mass M is the same before and after the expansion

I₁ = 1/3 ML₁² , I₂ = 1/3 ML₂²  → I₂/I₁ = (1/3 ML₂²)/(1/3 ML₁²)= L₂²/L₁²= (L₂/L₁)²

since

L₂= L₁ (1+αΔT) , L₂/L₁=1+αΔT  , where ΔT is the change in temperature

now putting all together

T₂/T₁=I₂/I₁=(L₂/L₁)² = (1+αΔT) ²

finally

%change in period =(T₂-T₁)/T₁ = T₂/T₁ - 1 = (1+αΔT) ² -1

%change in period =(1+αΔT) ² -1 =[ 1+18×10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹ *10 °C]² -1 = 3,6 ×10⁻⁴ = 3,6 ×10⁻² %  = 0,036 %

Anna drew a diagram to compare the strong and weak force. Which labels belong in the areas marked X, Y, and Z? X: infinite range
Maslowich

Answer:

For areas marked X, Y, Z, X is attractive only, Y has a very small range, and Z is attractive and repulsive

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

From the question stated, Anna drew a diagram to compare forces that are strong and weak.

Now,

We are to find which labels are grouped in areas marked as X, Y, Z respectively.

Thus,

For X, Y, Z it is marked as:

X: Always attractive  or attractive only

Y: Very small range

Z:  Repulsive and attractive

Blocks A and B are identical metal blocks. Initially block A is neutral, and block B has a net charge of 8.7 nC. Using insulatin
JulsSmile [24]

Explanation:

(a)   Since, it is given that the blocks are identical so distribution of charge will be uniform on both the blocks.

Hence, final charge on block A will be calculated as follows.

         Charge on block A = \frac{(8.7 + 0 nC}{2}

                                           = 4.35 nC

Therefore, final charge on the block A is 4.35 nC.

(b)  As it is given that the positive charge is coming on block A . This means that movement of electrons will be from A to B.

Thus, we can conclude that while the blocks were in contact with each other then electrons will flow from A to B.

In 1977 off the coast of Australia, the fastest speed by a vessel on the water
fenix001 [56]

Answer: 154.08 m/s

Explanation:

Average acceleration a_{ave} is the variation of velocity  \Delta V over a specified period of time  \Delta t:

a_{ave}=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}}

Where:

a_{ave}=1.80 m/s^{2}

\Delta V=V_{f}-V_{o} being V_{o}=0 the initial velocity and V_{f} the final velocity

\Delta t=85.6 s

Then:

a_{ave}=\frac{V_{f}-V_{o}}{\Delta t}}

Since V_{o}=0:

a_{ave}=\frac{V_{f}}{\Delta t}}

Finding V_{f}:

V_{f}=a_{ave} \Delta t

V_{f}=(1.80 m/s^{2})(85.6 s)

Finally:

V_{f}=154.08 m/s
