Answer:
Speed = 3 [km/h]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the definition of speed which relates the distance traveled for a while.
Distance = 1.5 [km] = 1500 [m].
time = 0.5 [hr] = 1800 [s]
Speed = Distance/time
Speed = 1.5/0.5
Speed = 3 [km/h] or 1500/1800 = 0.8333[m/s]
(Mass does not affect the pendulum's swing. The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.)
