Answer:

The length of the pendulum is 2.954 m.

Explanation:

Given;

period of the pendulum, T = 3.45 s

The period of the pendulum oscillation is given as;

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} } \\\\\frac{T}{2\pi} = \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }\\\\\frac{T^2}{4\pi ^2} = \frac{l}{g} \\\\l = \frac{gT^2}{4\pi ^2} \\\\

where;

L is length of the pendulum

g is acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.8 m/s²

l = \frac{gT^2}{4\pi ^2}\\\\l = \frac{(9.8)(3.45)^2}{4\pi ^2}\\\\l = 2.954 \ m

Therefore, the length of the pendulum is 2.954 m.

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

A) Z = 0.577 C +112.931

Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z

B) C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C

C) K = C +273.15

K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K

Explanation:

For this case we want to create a function like this:

Z = a C + b

Where Z represent the degrees for the Z scale C the Celsius grades and  tha valus a and b parameters for the model.

The boiling point of nitrogen is -195,8 °C

The melting point of iron is 1538 °C

We know the following equivalences:

-195.8 °C = 0 °Z

1538 °C = 1000 °Z

Let's say that one point its (1538C, 1000 Z) and other one is (-195.8 C, 0Z)

So then we can calculate the slope for the linear model like this:

a = \frac{z_2 -z_1}{c_2 -c_1}= \frac{1000 Z- 0Z}{1538C -(-195.8 C)}=\frac{1000 Z}{1733.8 C}=0.577 \frac{Z}{C}

And now for the slope we can use one point let's use for example (-195.8C, 0Z), and we have this:

0 = 0.577 (-195.8) + b

And if we solve for b we got:

b = 0.577*195.8 =112.931 Z

So then our lineal model would be:

Z = 0.577 C +112.931

Part A

The boiling point of water is 100C so we just need to replace in the model and see what we got:

Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z

Part B

For this case we have Z =100 and we want to solve for C, so we can do this:

Z-112.931 = 0.577 C

C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C

Part C

For this case we know that K = C +273.15

And we can use the result from part B to solve for K like this:

K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K

My mass is 65 kg and on Earth this equals a weight of 640 N, but on the moon where gravity is 1.7 m/s² my
Helen [10]

Your weight on the moon given the data from the question is 110.5 N

<h3>Definition of mass and weight </h3>

Mass is simply defined as the quantity of matter present in an object. The mass of an object is constant irrespective of the location of the object.

Weight is simply defined as the gravitational pull on an object. The weight of an object varies from place to place due to gravity.

<h3>Relationship between mass and weight </h3>

Mass and weight are related according to the following equation

Weight (W) = mass (m) × Acceleration due to gravity (g)

<h3>How to determine the weight on the moon</h3>
  • Mass (m) = 65 Kg
  • Acceleration due to gravity on the moon (g) = 1.7 m/s²
  • Weight (W) =?

W = mg

W = 65 × 1.7

W = 110.5 N

What elements are good conductors of electricity?
kramer
In solids: All metals are good conductors of electricity as they contain free moving electrons. Non-metals doesn't conduct , but we consider Graphite the only non-metal that can conduct electricity for the presence of free moving electrons.

In Liquids ; Ionic compunds contains free moving ions , so they conduct electricity as well .
