Answer:

Newton's first law states that, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly related to the net force and inversely related to its mass. Acceleration of an object depends on two things, force and mass.

Newton's third law states that if an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A. This law represents a certain symmetry in nature: forces always occur in pairs, and one body cannot exert a force on another without experiencing a force itself.

Answer:

$\frac{g_{2}}{g_{1}} = \frac{1}{4}$

Explanation:

The period of the simple pendulum is:

$T = 2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

Where:

$l$ - Cord length, in m.

$g$ - Gravity constant, in $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ .

Given that the same pendulum is test on each planet, the following relation is formed:

$T_{1}^{2}\cdot g_{1} = T_{2}^{2}\cdot g_{2}$

The ratio of the gravitational constant on planet CornTeen to the gravitational constant on planet Earth is:

$\frac{g_{2}}{g_{1}} = \left(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}} \right)^{2}$

$\frac{g_{2}}{g_{1}} = \left(\frac{2\,s}{4\,s} \right)^{2}$

$\frac{g_{2}}{g_{1}} = \frac{1}{4}$

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to answer this problem you have to know the depth of the column, we say R, this information is important because allows you to compute some harmonic of the tube. With this information you can compute the depth of the colum of air, by taking tino account that the new depth is R-L.

To find the fundamental mode you use:

$f_n=\frac{nv_s}{4L}$
