A simple pendulum is made from a 0.54-m-long string and a small ball attached to its free end. The ball is pulled to one side th

Serga [27]

Answer:

0.37sec

Explanation:

Period of oscillation of a simple pendulum of length L is:

T = 2 π × √ (L /g)

L=length of string 0.54m

g=acceleration due to gravity

T-period

T = 2 x 3.14 x √[0.54/9.8]

T = 1.47sec

An oscillating pendulum, or anything else in nature that involves "simple harmonic" (sinusoidal) motion, spends 1/4 of its period going from zero speed to maximum speed, and another 1/4 going from maximum speed to zero speed again, etc. After four quarter-periods it is back where it started.

The ball will first have V(max) at T/4,

=>V(max) = 1.47/4 = 0.37 sec

A young kid of mass m = 36 kg is swinging on a swing. The length from the top of the swing set to the seat is L = 3.5 m. The boy

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of boy=36 kg

length of swing=3.5 m

Let T be the tension in the swing

At top point $mg-T=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

where v=velocity needed to complete circular path

Th-resold velocity is given by $mg-0=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{9.8\times 3.5}=5.85 m/s$

So apparent weight of boy will be zero at top when it travels with a velocity of $v=\sqrt{gr}$

To get the velocity at bottom conserve energy at Top and bottom

At top $E_T=mg\times 2L+\frac{mv^2}{2}$

Energy at Bottom $E_b=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}$

Comparing two as energy is conserved

$v_0^2=4gl+gl$

$v_0^2=5gL$

$v_0=\sqrt{5gL}=13.09 m/s$

Apparent weight at bottom is given by

$W=\frac{mv_0^2}{L}-mg=\frac{36\times 13.09^2}{3.5}+36\times 9.8=2115.23 N$

To reduce inductive reactance, what devices are normally placed on transmission or distribution lines?

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer : Capacitors

Explanation : Capacitors are normally placed on transmission or distribution lines when to reduce inductive reactance.

This is because it enhances electromechanical and voltage stability , limit voltage dips at network nodes and reduces the power loss.

So, we can say that inductive reactance normally replace by the capacitors.

A sphere of radius R contains charge Q spread uniformly throughout its volume. Find an expression for the electrostatic energy c

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

$E = \frac{3kQ^2}{5R}$

Explanation:

Let the sphere is uniformly charge to radius "r" and due to this charged sphere the electric potential on its surface is given as

$V = \frac{kq}{r}$

now we can say that

$q = \frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3} (\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3)$

$q = \frac{Qr^3}{R^3}$

now electric potential is given as

$V = \frac{k\frac{Qr^3}{R^3}}{r}$

$V = \frac{kQr^2}{R^3}$

now work done to bring a small charge from infinite to the surface of this sphere is given as

$dW = V dq$

$dW = \frac{kQr^2}{R^3} dq$

here we know that

$dq = \frac{3Qr^2dr}{R^3}$

now the total energy of the sphere is given as

$E = \int dW$

$E = \int_0^R \frac{kQr^2}{R^3} (\frac{3Qr^2dr}{R^3})$

$E = \frac{3kQ^2}{R^6} (\frac{R^5}{5} - 0)$

$E = \frac{3kQ^2}{5R}$
