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.

For a vehicle to negotiate a banked curve in poor weather conditions, where the force of friction f = 0, for a given velocity v

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

$R=240m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Velocity $v=25m/s$

Force of friction f = 0

Angle $\theta=15$

Generally the equation for Radius of curvature is mathematically given by

$R=frac{v^2}{tan\theta *g}$

$R=frac{25^2}{tan 15 *9.81}$

$R=240m$

What happens to the frequency and pitch of sound if the object making the sound moves away from you ?

Olin [163]

If you and the source of sound are moving apart, then the pitch (frequency) <em>you hear</em> is <em>lower</em> than the pitch (frequency) that's actually leaving the source.

It doesn't matter whether you or the source is the one moving, only that the distance between you is increasing.

A girl is whirling a ball on a string around her head in

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

The girl whirling the ball should let go off ball when the ball is at a position such that tangent to the circle is in the direction of the target.

the tangent at any point in a circular path indicates the direction of velocity at that point. And the moment when the centripetal force is removed the ball will follow the tangential path at that moment.

Maslowich

Answer:

695800 N/m^2 or Pa

Explanation:

Height of the water from the ground H = 71 m

Acceleration due to gravity g =9.8 m/s^2

density of water ρ= 1000 kg/m^3

The minimum output gauge pressure to make water reach height H

P= ρgH

= 1000×9.8×71= 695800 N/m^2 or Pa
