1 answer:
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

The period of a simple pendulum is given by
where
L is the pendulum length
g is the acceleration of gravity
If we move the same pendulum from Earth to the Moon, its length L remains the same, while the acceleration of gravity g changes. So we can write the period of the pendulum on Earth as:
where
is the acceleration of gravity on Earth, while the period of the pendulum on the Moon is
where
is the acceleration of gravity on the Moon.
If we do the ratio of the two periods, we get
but the gravity acceleration on the Moon is 1/6 of the gravity acceleration on Earth, so we can write
and we can rewrite the previous ratio as
so the period of the pendulum on the Moon is

Answer:
Number of electron wavelength will Double
Explanation:
let the radius = r and wavelength = λ
when R doubles and λ ( wavelength ) remains the same
The number of electron electron wavelengths will double as well

12.64968 Hz
Explanation:
v = Velocity of sound in seawater = 1522 m/s
u = Velocity of dolphin = 7.2 m/s
f' = Actual frequency = 2674 Hz
From Doppler effect we get the relation
The frequency that will be received is 2661.35032 Hz
The difference in the frequency will be
