After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 54.0 cm. The explorer finds that

the pendulum completes 98.0 full swing cycles in a time of 135s.

Answer:

g = 11.2 m/s²

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the time period of the pendulum:

T = \frac{t}{n}

where,

T = Time period = ?

t = time taken = 135 s

n = no. of swings in given time = 98

Therefore,

T = \frac{135\ s}{98}

T = 1.38 s

Now, we utilize the second formula for the time period of the simple pendulum, given as follows:

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

where,

l = length of pendulum = 54 cm = 0.54 m

g = acceleration due to gravity on the planet = ?

Therefore,

(1.38\ s)^2 = 4\pi^2(\frac{0.54\ m}{g} )\\\\g = \frac{4\pi^2(0.54\ m)}{(1.38\ s)^2}

<u>g = 11.2 m/s²</u>

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

a)  fr = 224.3 N , b)   fr = 224.3 N , c)   v = 198.0  m/s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise let's start by calculating the acceleration in the fall

             v² = v₀² - 2 a (y-y₀)

When it jumps the initial vertical speed is zero

             a = -v² / 2 (y-y₀)

             a = -68 2/2 (1000-2000)

             a = 2,312 m / s²

Let's use the second net law to enter the average friction force

            fr = m a

            fr = 97 2,312

            fr = 224.3 N

b) let's look for acceleration

            v² = v₀² - 2 a y

            a = (v² –v₀²) / 2 (y-y₀)

            a = (4² - 68²) / 2 (0-1000)

            a = 2,304 m / s²

            fr = m a

            fr = 97 2,304

            fr = 223.5 N

c) the speed of the wallet is searched with kinematics

           v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

           v = √ (0-2 9.8 (0-2000))

           v = 198.0  m/s

How to find the velocity of an object in a circular path?
Luda [366]
First of all, let's just talk about the speed, and not get wound up
in the velocity. OK ?

If a fly is sitting on the rim of the wheel and the wheel is rotating, then for
each full revolution of the wheel, the fly travels the circumference of the
wheel, which is (2 π) x (radius of the wheel).

In 'N' revolutions, the fly travels (2 N π) x (the radius). and so on.

So if the wheel is going, let's say 71 revs per minute (RPM), a point
on the rim is moving at (2 π times 71) x (the radius) per minute.

Another way to say it:

Speed of a point on the circle = (2 π) x (rotation frequency) x (radius).

The 'rotation frequency' takes care of the unit of time, and the 'radius'
takes care of the unit of length, so the result is a speed.

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Explanation:

The hand provides Kinetic Energy in moving.

The KE is transformed to Frictional energy

The Frictional Energy can produce heat and light energy.

The sandpaper produces little shreds from the grit of the paper.

The shreds have KE (they move)
