There is fluctuation in time measured by a pendulum clock why give reasons

1 answer:

3 0

A major source of error in pendulum clocks is thermal expansion; the pendulum rod changes in length slightly with changes in temperature, causing changes in the rate of the clock. An increase in temperature causes the rod to expand, making the pendulum longer, so its period increases and the clock loses time.

Explanation:

Voltage, V = 1.58 V

Power, P = 1 W

1 A.h

Charge, Q = 1 A.h = 1 x 3600 A.s = 3600 C

Power x time = Voltage x charge

1 x t = 1.58 x 3600

t = 1.58 x 3600 second

t = 1.58 hours

How does temperature affect chemical reaction

Elis [28]

When its temperature increases, the reactants have more kinetic energy so the frequency of effective collision increases, resulting in a faster rate of chemical reaction.

For what absolute value of the phase angle does a source deliver 71 % of the maximum possible power to an RLC circuit

kherson [118]

Answer: the absolute value of the phase angle is 28°

Explanation:

taking a look at expression for the instantaneous electric power in an AC circuit;

P = VI -------let this be equation 1

p is power, v is voltage and I is current;

for maximum power

P_max = V_rms × I_rms --------let this be equ 2

where P_max is the maximum power, V_rms is the rms value of voltage and I_rms is the rms value of current.

Also for average electric power in an AC circuit

P_avg = V_rms × I_rms × cos²∅ -------let this be equ 3

where P_avg is the average power and cos∅ is the power factor

now from equation 2; P_max = V_rms × I_rms

so p_max replaces V_rms × I_rms in equation 3

we now have

P_avg = P_max × cos²∅

so we substitute

expression for the given value of the average power is

P_avg = P_max × 75%

p_avg = P_max.78/100

for the expression of the average electricity in an AC circuit

P_max.78/100 = P_max × cos²∅

78/100 = cos²∅

to get the absolute value of phase angle

∅ = cos⁻¹ ( √(78/100))

∅ = cos⁻¹ ( 0.8832)

∅ = 27.969 ≈ 28°

Therefore the absolute value of the phase angle is 28°

A man weighs 1190 n on earth. what would he weigh on jupiter, where the free-fall acceleration is 25.9 m/s 2 ? the acceleration

Elden [556K]

The answer would be 3,145N. Using W=mg solve for the mass of the man on earth. Once you have the mass you can multiply it by the gravity of Jupiter giving you his weight in Newton’s on Jupiter.
