A pendulum of length L=36.1 cm and mass m=168 g is released from rest when the cord makes an angle of 65.4 degrees with the vert
pychu [463]

(a) -0.211 m

At the beginning the mass is displaced such that the length of the pendulum is L = 36.1 cm and the angle with the vertical is

\theta=65.4^{\circ}

The projection of the length of the pendulum along the vertical direction is

L_y = L cos \theta = (36.1 cm)(cos 65.4^{\circ})=15.0 cm

the full length of the pendulum when the mass is at the lowest position is

L = 36.1 cm

So the y-displacement of the mass is

\Delta y = 15.0 cm - 36.1 cm = -21.1 cm = -0.211 m

(b) 0.347 J

The work done by gravity is equal to the decrease in gravitational potential energy of the mass, which is equal to

\Delta U = mg \Delta y

where we have

m = 168 g = 0.168 kg is the mass of the pendulum

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

\Delta y = 0.211 m is the vertical displacement of the pendulum

So, the work done by gravity is

W=(0.168 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(0.211 m)=0.347 J

And the sign is positive, since the force of gravity (downward) is in the same direction as the vertical displacement of the mass.

(c) Zero

The work done by a force is:

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

In this situation, the tension in the string always points in a radial direction (towards the pivot of the pendulum), while the displacement of the mass is tangential (it follows a circular trajectory): this means that the tension and the displacement are always perpendicular to each other, so in the formula

\theta=90^{\circ}, cos \theta = 0

and so the work done is zero.

A 10.0-kg box starts at rest on a level floor. An external, horizontal force of 2.00 × 102 N is applied to the box for a distanc
Harman [31]

Answer:

vf = 11.2 m/s

Explanation:

m = 10 Kg

F = 2*10² N

x = 4.00 m

μ = 0.44

vi = 0 m/s

vf = ?

We can apply Newton's 2nd Law

∑ Fx = m*a   (→)

F - Ffriction = m*a  ⇒  F - (μ*N) = F - (μ*m*g) = m*a   ⇒  a = (F - μ*m*g)/m

⇒    a = (2*10² N - 0.44*10 Kg*9.81 m/s²)/10 Kg = 15.6836 m/s²

then , we use the equation

vf² = vi² + 2*a*x    ⇒    vf = √(vi² + 2*a*x)

⇒   vf = √((0)² + 2*(15.6836 m/s²)*(4.00m)) = 11.2 m/s

2. Keith took a cube and measured the mass and volume of a
galben [10]

Answer:

<h2>6 g/cm³</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass = 36 g

volume = 6 cm³

We have

density =  \frac{36}{6}  = 6 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>6 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you

Describe the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas when temperature and mass are constant
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The product of Pressure and Volume is a constant.

Explanation:

We know the Ideal gas equation,

PV  =  nRT,

where,

P -  Pressure of the gas

V -  Volume of the gas

n -  No. of moles of the gas taken

R -  Universal Gas Constant.

T - Temperature of the gas.

We know that ,  n  =  \frac{wt}{Mwt}

where, wt - Mass of gass ; Mwt - Molecular weight of the gas.

We are given the weight of the gas remains constant (wt is a constant)

Therefore as n = \frac{wt}{Mwt},(where both wt and Mwt are constants)

n is a constant in this process.

Universal gas constant is a constant

Given temperature is a constant.

Therefore,

As, PV = nRT,  (where n,R,T are constants),

PV is a constant.

Therefore we can say,

PV = k,  for some constant k.

If we plot a graph for P vs V , we get a Rectangular Hyperbola( One of the general forms of a Rectangular Hyperbola is xy = c)
