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

Physics
1 answer:
natulia [17]3 years ago
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.

What is rotation and revolution
skad [1K]
When an object turns around an internal axis (like the Earth turns around its axis) it is called a rotation. When an object circles an external axis (like the Earth circles the sun) it is called a revolution.

A 800hz tuning fork is vibrating, producing a sound wave in the air.
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The frequency of the sound wave is 800Hz

The speed of sound in a is about 340m/s.

Velocity = frequency x wavelength

making wavelength the subject formula

wavelength = Velocity/frequency.

wavelength = 340/800

wavelength = 0.425m.

There are four springs stretched by the same mass.
brilliants [131]

Spring C stretches 100 cm.

Explanation:

The spring constant is simply the stiffness of the spring. The higher the spring constant the more stiff the spring is.

Spring constant shows the force needed to stretch a spring from it's equilibrium position. If a material requires more force to cause it to stretch, it will have a high spring constant.

          According to hooke's law "the force needed to extended an elastic material is directly proportional to its extension"

          F = ke

   k is the spring constant

   e is the extension

We see that the spring that stretches by 100 is the less stiff compared to other springs. It has the smallest spring constant.

An object is dropped from a height of 75.0 m above ground level. (a) Determine the distance traveled during the first second. (b
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a)Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.

b)Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s

c)Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion

             S = ut + 0.5at²

     Here u = 0, and a = g

              S = 0.5gt²

    Distance traveled during the first second ( t =1 )

              S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 1² = 4.905 m

   Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.

b)  We have equation of motion

            v² = u² + 2as

      Here u = 0, s= 75 m and a = g

           v² = 0² + 2 x g x 75 = 150 x 9.81

           v = 38.36 m/s

      Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s

c) We have S = 0.5gt²

                   75 = 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

                    t = 3.91 s

   We need to find distance traveled last second

   That is

          S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 3.91² - 0.5 x 9.81 x 2.91² = 33.45 m

   Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m
