A 1.80-kg monkey wrench is pivoted 0.250 m from its center of mass and allowed to swing as a physical pendulum. The period for s

mall-angle oscillations is 0.940 s. (a) What is the moment of inertia of the wrench about an axis through the pivot

Answer:

$I=0.0987kg.m^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass $M=1.80kg$

Deviation $d=0.250$

Time $t=0.940s$

Generally the equation for moment of inertia is mathematically given by

$I=\frac{T}{2\pi}^2(mgd)$

$I=\frac{0.94}{2.3.142}^2(1.80*9.8*0.250)$

$I=0.0987kgm^2$

Increasing the concentration of greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere decreases the transparency of the atmosphere to infrared

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Decreases the transparency of the atmosphere to infrared light.

Explanation:

When a large amount of green-house gases are present in the atmosphere, the layer of these gases become opaque to infrared radiation and radiation from the sun get trapped into these gases molecules. These excited molecules radiate this energy into our own atmosphere and that why the temperature of Earth is rising due to the Green-House effect.

Normal atmospheric pressure is 1.013 105 Pa. The approach of a storm causes the height of a mercury barometer to drop by 27.1 mm

Burka [1]

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure is $0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Atmospheric pressure $P_{atm}= 1.013\times10^{5}\ Pa$

drop height h'= 27.1 mm

Density of mercury $\rho= 13.59 g/cm^3$

We need to calculate the height

Using formula of pressure

$p = \rho g h$

Put the value into the formula

$1.013\times10^{5}=13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times h$

$h =\dfrac{1.013\times10^{5}}{13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8}$

$h=0.76\ m$

We need to calculate the new height

$h''=h - h'$

$h''=0.76-27.1\times10^{-3}$

$h''=0.76-0.027$

$h''=0.733\ m$

We need to calculate the atmospheric pressure

Using formula of atmospheric pressure

$P=\rho g h$

Put the value into the formula

$P= 13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times0.733$

$P=0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa$

Hence, The atmospheric pressure is $0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa$ .

From the following statements about mechanical waves, identify those that are true for transverse mechanical waves only, those t

Dominik [7]

'In transverse waves, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the flow of energy' is true for transverse waves only.

'In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the flow of energy' is true for longitudinal waves only.

'Many wave motions in nature are a combination of longitudinal and transverse motion' is true for both longitudinal and transverse waves.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Longitudinal waves are those where the direction of propagation of particles are parallel to the medium' particles. While transverse waves propagate perpendicular to the medium' particles.

As wave motions are assumed to be of standing waves which comprises of particles moving parallel as well as perpendicular to the medium, most of the wave motions are composed of longitudinal and transverse motion.

So the option stating the medium' particle moves perpendicular to the direction of the energy flow is true for transverse waves. Similarly, the option stating the medium' particle moves parallel to the direction of flow of energy is true for longitudinal waves only.

And the option stating that wave motions comprises of combination of longitudinal and transverse motion is true for both of them.

The picture below shows a football player kicking a football. This is known as two dimensional motion. In which direction does t

Molodets [167]

You are true, Stokey. The correct choice is<em> (c)</em>.

If you think about it a little bit more, you'll realize that "side to side" is also a horizontal motion.

Anyway, the question told us that we're only talking about 2 dimensions. Well, the The measurements in the 2 dimensions are the x and the y . If there were a z measurement, that would be the 3rd dimension.
