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.

7. A neutral aluminum rod is at rest on a foam insulating base. A negatively charged balloon is brought near one end of the rod

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

If a negatively charged balloon is brought near one end of the rod but not in direct contact, then <u>the negative charges on the balloon repel the same amount of negative charges on the end of the rod that is close to the balloon</u>, and the positive charges stay at the balloon-side of the rod. The total charge of the rod is still zero, but the distribution of the charges are now non-uniform.

A hand lifts a block vertically upward at constant velocity. The work done by gravity on the block ____ if the system consists o

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

If the system consists of the block only, the work done by the gravity is negative.

If the system consists of the block and the earth the work done by the gravity is zero.

Explanation:

If the system consists of the block only, then the system experiences two external forces: one exerted by the hand that lifts the block vertically upward and other exerted by the earth (gravity), which is opposed to the movement of the system, so the work done by gravity is negative.

On the other hand, if the system consists of the block and the earth, then only exists a external force which is the exerted by the hand. So, the force exerted by gravity is zero.

The magnitude of electrical force between a pair of charged particles is ____ as much when the particles are moved half as far a

Gnesinka [82]

The magnitude of the electrical force between a pair of charged particles is 4 Times as much when the particles are moved half as far apart.

This can be easily understood by Columb's law,

$F_{new} = \frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2}}{r^{2}}$

which state's that the amount of electrical force experienced by two charged particles is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

∴ $\frac{F_{new} }{F_{old} } = \frac{Distance_{new}^{2} }{Distance_{old}^{2} }$

Now, we know the new distance is half the original distance,

$F_{new} = \frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2}}{\frac{r}{2}^{2} } \\F_{new} = 4\frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2}}{r^{2}}$

$F_{new} = 4F_{old}$

The electrical force of attraction or electrostatic force of attraction between two charged particles refers to the amount of attractive or repulsive force that exists between the two charges. This can be calculated by Columb's Law.

A charged particle in physics is a particle that has an electric charge. It might be an ion, such as a molecule or atom having an excess or shortage of electrons in comparison to protons. The same charge is thought to be shared by an electron, a proton, or another primary particle.
