What is the pendulum length whose period is 2.0s ?

Mashutka [201]

$Formula\ for\ period:\\\ T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\\\ g-gravity=9,8 \frac{m}{s^2} ,\ L-pendulum \ length \\\\ \frac{T}{2 \pi } = \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }|square\\\\ \frac{T^2}{2 \pi } = \frac{L}{g} \\\\\ \frac{T^2}{2 \pi }*g=L\\\\ L= \frac{2^2}{2*3,14 }*9,8= \frac{39,2}{6,28} =6,24m$ $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} \\
 \frac{T}{2 \pi } = \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }|square\\
 \frac{T^2}{2 \pi } = \frac{L}{g} \\
 \frac{T^2}{2 \pi }*g=L\\
L= \frac{2^2}{2*3,14 }*9,8= \frac{39,2}{6,28} =6,24m

Write a complete scientific explanation to account for why the ball that was moving faster caused more flour to spread out.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

It is due to the large impulse is imparted on the flour.

Explanation:

A ball is moving faster.

When a ball is moving faster strikes to the flour, the change in momentum is large and thus the impulse imparted on the flour is large.

Impulse = change in momentum

So, as the flour experiences large impulse and large momentum so that the flour spreads out.

If the change in momentum is large so the flour spreads out is more.

The FM radio band in most places goes from frequencies of about 89 MHz to 106 MHz. How long is the wavelength of the radiation a

ohaa [14]

Answer:

2.83 m

Explanation:

The relationship between frequency and wavelength for an electromagnetic wave is given by

$\lambda=\frac{c}{f}$

where

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

$c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light

$f$ is the frequency

For the FM radio waves in this problem, we have:

$f_1=89 MHz=89\cdot 10^6 Hz$ is the minimum frequency, so the maximum wavelength is

$\lambda_2=\frac{c}{f_1}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8}{89\cdot 10^6}=3.37 m$

The maximum frequency is instead

$f_2=106 MHz=106\cdot 10^6 Hz$

Therefore, the minimum wavelength is

$\lambda_1=\frac{c}{f_2}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8}{106\cdot 10^6}=2.83 m$

So, the wavelength at the beginning of the range is 2.83 m.

A student is swimming south applying a force of 256 N. The water exerts a westward force of 104 N. If the student has a mass of

grigory [225]

Answer:

$a=2.9\ m/sec^2$

Explanation:

<u>Net Forces and Acceleration</u>

The second Newton's Law relates the net force $F_r$ acting on an object of mass m with the acceleration a it gets. Both the net force and the acceleration are vector and have the same direction because they are proportional to each other.

$\vec F_r=m\vec a$

According to the information given in the question, two forces are acting on the swimming student: One of 256 N pointing to the south and other to the west of 104 N. Since those forces are not aligned, we must add them like vectors as shown in the figure below.

The magnitude of the resulting force $F_r$ is computed as the hypotenuse of a right triangle

$|F_r|=\sqrt{256^2+104^2}$

$|F_r|=276.32\ Nw$

The acceleration can be obtained from the formula

$F_r=ma$

Note we are using only magnitudes here

$\displaystyle a=\frac{F_r}{m}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{276.32Nw}{95.3Kg}$

$\boxed{a=2.9\ m/sec^2}$

If a displacement vector has a negative x component and a positive y component,

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The direction will be NE i.e North east.

Explanation:

From the question, it will be travelling in North east direction because the the negative X components in vector is in horizontal direction which is the Eastern direction when using the four cardinal points and the Y components, the positive is in North direction if you use the four cardinal points. Therefore, the vector with both X components and Y components will be travelling in Northeast direction.
