The period T of a pendulum of length L is measured to determine g at the surface of Earth. The equation used is T=2π√L/g. The ma

ss of the pendulum bob is 10.0 kg, and the length of the pendulum is 1.00 m. Which of the following would contribute most to the expected error in the result?
a. 10% uncertainty in the measurement of the mass.
b. Approximating the value of t as 3.14.
c. Variation in the value of g as the pendulum bob moves along its arc.
d. Using the average period of 10 timed oscillations instead of the period of 1 timed oscillation.
d. Starting the pendulum swinging by releasing it from a horizontal position D. E.

Answer:

C: Variation in the value of g as the pendulum bob moves along its arc.

Explanation:

The formula for period of a simple pendulum is given by;

T = 2π√(L/g)

Where;

L is length

g is acceleration due to gravity

Now, from this period equation, it is clear that the only thing that can affect the period of a simple pendulum are changes to its length and acceleration due to gravity.

Looking at the options, the only one that talks about either the length or gravity as being potential causes of the error is option C

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

 N= 3

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Faraday's law

          E = - dФ / dt

         Ф = B . A = B Acos θ

tje bold indicate vectors. As it indicates that the variation of the field is linear, we can approximate the derivatives

         E = - A cos θ (B - B₀) / t

The angle enters the magnetic field and the normal to the area is zero

         cos 0 = 1

         A = π r²

   

In the length of the wire there are N turns each with a length L₀ = 2π r

          L = N (2π r)

          r = L / 2π N

    we substitute

          A = L² / (4π N²)

The magnetic field produced by a solenoid is

           B = μ₀ N/L   I

for which

            B₀ = μ₀  N/L   I

           

The final field is zero, because the current is zero

            B = 0

We substitute

           E = - (L² / 4π N²)  (0 - μ₀ N/L I) / t

           E = μ₀ L I / (4π N t)

           N = μ₀ L I / (4π t E)

The electromotive force is E = 0.80 mV = 0.8 10⁻³ V

let's calculate

           N = 4π 10⁻⁷ 200 1.60 / (4π 0.120 0.8 10⁻³)]

           N  = 320 10⁻⁷ / 9.6 10⁻⁶

           N = 33.3 10⁻¹

          N= 3

1. 1500j of work was done to move a box 20m. What force was applied to the box ?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

1. 75N

2. 67,983 J (=67.98 kJ)

Explanation:

1. Work = Force x Distance

we are given that Work = 1,500J and Distance = 20m

hence,

Work = Force x Distance

1,500 = Force x 20

Force = 1,500 ÷ 20 = 75N

2. Potential Energy, PE = mass x gravity x change in height

we are given that mass = 165 kg and change in height = 42m

assuming that gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

Potential Energy, PE = mass x gravity x change in height

Potential Energy, PE = 165 x 9.81 x 42 = 67,983 J (=67.98 kJ)
