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 police radar gun uses X-band microwave radiation at a frequency of 12.2 GHz. Microwaves travel at the speed of light, or 3x108
quester [9]

Answer:

A police radar gun uses X-band microwave radiation at a frequency of 13.1 GHz. Microwaves travel at the speed of light, or 3x108 m/s. Since the frequency shift will be small for practical car speeds and difficult to detect, the shifted frequency is compared to the original frequency, and the resulting beat frequency is used to determine the speed of the car.

a.) If Michael is traveling at 29 m/s, what is the resulting beat frequency that the radar gun detects?

ANSWER: 2533 Hz

Oil having a density of 926 kg/m3 floats on water. A rectangular block of wood 3.69 cm high and with a density of 974 kg/m3 floa
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

the position of the wood below the interface of the two liquids is 2.39 cm.

Explanation:

Given;

density of oil, \rho _o = 926 kg/m³

density of the wood, \rho _{wood} = 974 kg/m³

density of water, \rho _w = 1000 kg/m³

height of the wood, h = 3.69 cm

Based on the density of the wood, it will position across the two liquids.

let the position of the wood below the interface of the two liquids = x

Let the wood be in equilibrium position;

F_{wood} - F_{oil} - F_{water} = 0\\\\\rho _{wood} .gh - \rho _o .g(h-x) - \rho_w .gx = 0\\\\\rho _{wood} .h - \rho _o (h-x) - \rho_w .x = 0\\\\\rho _{wood} .h -\rho _o h + \rho _o x - \rho_w .x =0\\\\h (\rho _{wood}  -\rho _o ) = x( \rho_w - \rho _o)\\\\x =h[\frac{ \rho _{wood}  -\rho _o }{\rho_w - \rho _o} ]\\\\x = 3.69\ cm \times [\frac{974 - 926}{1000-926} ]\\\\x = 2.39 \ cm

Therefore, the position of the wood below the interface of the two liquids is 2.39 cm.
