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

What is the speed of a wave in (m/s) with a 5 meter wavelength and a period of 20 seconds?
arlik [135]

Answer: 0.25 m/s

Explanation:  Speed = wavelengt · frequency  

v = λf   and frequency is 1/period  f = 1/T

Then v = λ/T = 5 m / 20 s = 0.25 m/s

If the Moon moved farther away from Earth, what would happen to the gravitational force between Earth and the Moon?
trasher [3.6K]
Gravitational forces are stronger over shorter distances, and
weaker over longer distances.  That's a big part of the reason
why our bodies are attracted to the Earth with more force than
we're attracted to Jupiter, for example.

The force doesn't just get weaker in proportion to the distance.
It gets weaker in proportion to the SQUARE of the distance.
