Answer: the value of g in Death Valley is 10.417 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that;

acceleration due to gravity at the point is g = 9.8 m/s²

Lets say the acceleration due to gravity at the bottom of Death valley is g'

as the period of the pendulum is decreased by 3.00%

T' = 0.97 T  

T is the period of the pendulum at sea level  and T' is the period of the pendulum at bottom of Death valley

therefore from the relation

T = 2π√(l/g)

g'/g = T²/T'²

g' = (T²/ (0.97T)²)g

g' = 1.063g

g' = 10.417 m/s²

therefore the value of g in Death Valley is 10.417 m/s²

A ball hits a wall. What is true about the magnitude of the force experienced by the ball compared with the force experienced by
Natalka [10]

Answer:

The ball and the wall experience the same force.

Explanation:

According to the third law of Newton, which states that "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction", this means that when an object 1 acts on object 2 with a certain force, object 2 also acts on object 1 with the same magnitude of force but in an opposite direction.

According to this question, a ball hits a wall with a certain force. This means that the wall will react on the ball with the same force magnitude, but in an opposite manner. Hence, the ball and the wall experience the same force.

Olivia wants to find out whether a substance will fluoresce. She says she should put it in a microwave oven. Do you agree with h
Sophie [7]
I disagree.
Many substances show fluorescence under ULTRAVIOLET light, NOT microwaves. :)

How is velocity different from speed?
enyata [817]

Velocity, unlike speed, includes a direction.

Velocity is a vector quantity which is defined by magnitude and direction.

Speed is a scalar quantity. It is the rate at which an object moves regardless of which direction.
