Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the pendulum (the combination of the sphere and the massless rod).  There are three forces on the pendulum:

Weight force mg at the center of the sphere,

Reaction force in the x direction at the pivot,

Reaction force in the y direction at the pivot.

Sum the torques about the pivot O.

∑τ = I d²θ/dt²

mg (L sin θ) = I d²θ/dt²

For small θ, sin θ ≈ θ.

mg L θ = I d²θ/dt²

Since d²θ/dt² is directly proportional to θ, this fits the definition of simple harmonic motion.

If you wish, you can use parallel axis theorem to find the moment of inertia about O:

I = Icm + md²

I = ⅖ mr² + mL²

mg L θ = (⅖ mr² + mL²) d²θ/dt²

gL θ = (⅖ r² + L²) d²θ/dt²

Answer:

Change in temperature ∆(tita) is 266.097°C

Explanation:

Ok kinectic energy = 1/2MV²

5.4 grams =( 5.4/1000) kilogram

Kinectic energy =( 1/2 )*(5.4/1000)*261²

Kinectic energy = 183.9267 joules

If kinetic energy = thermal energy

183.9267 joules = mc∆(tita)

Where ∆(tita) = change in temperature

And c = 128 J/kg

∆(tita) = 183.9267/((5.4/1000)*128)

∆(tita) = 266.097

∆(tita) = 266.097°C

What is it called when something dissolves into something else
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The correct answer is dissolving and the end product is a solution.

Explanation:

Solubility is an property of a substance to get dissolved into another. When a substance, termed as solute, dissolves in another substance, termed as solvent, we get a solution.

Larger molecules of the solute breaks because of weak covalent bonds between their molecules and pairs up with the smaller molecules of the solvent and thus dissolves in it. Not all elements can serve solutes or solvents as some have strong forces that bind them together. For example sugar is a solute in water but oil is not soluble in water.

Which part of an atom makes up most its volume
VikaD [51]

Hi! The inner most part of the atom (which is most of the atom) is occupied by electrons, therefore it’d take of most of its volume. Have a nice day!
