Solution :
Given
Diameter of the roulette ball = 30 cm
The speed ball spun at the beginning = 150 rpm
The speed of the ball during a period of 5 seconds = 60 rpm
Therefore, change of speed in 5 seconds = 150 - 60
= 90 rpm
Therefore,
90 revolutions in 1 minute
or In 1 minute the ball revolves 90 times
i.e. 1 min = 90 rev
60 sec = 90 rev
1 sec = 90/ 60 rec
5 sec =
= 75 rev
Therefore, the ball made 75 revolutions during the 5 seconds.
Answer:
<em>The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T</em>
Explanation:
<u>Simple Pendulum</u>
A simple pendulum is a mechanical arrangement that describes periodic motion. The simple pendulum is made of a small bob of mass 'm' suspended by a thin inextensible string.
The period of a simple pendulum is given by
Where L is its length and g is the local acceleration of gravity.
If the length of the pendulum was increased to 9 times (L'=9L), the new period of oscillation will be:
Taking out the square root of 9 (3):
Substituting the original T:
The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T
