9) What will happen to the period of a pendulum if we change the rope of a pendulum with another which is four times with the in
Arturiano [62]

Double

Explanation:

Since the period T of a pendulum is given by

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

By increasing the length of the pendulum by 4, the period becomes

T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{4l}{g}} = 2\left(2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}\right) = 2T

You can see that the period doubles when we increase the length by a factor of 4.

you are piloting a small plane and you want to reach an airport 450 km due south in 3.0 h a wind is blowing from the west 50.0 k
alex41 [277]

Answer:

You should choose airspeed 158.11 km/h at 18.4° west of south

Explanation:

The distance to the air port is 450 km due to south

You should to reach the airport in 3 hours

→ Velocity = distance ÷ time

→ Distance = 450 km , time = 3 hours

→ The velocity of your plane = 450 ÷ 3 = 150 km/h due to south

A wind is blowing from west 50 km/h

We need to know what heading and airspeed you should choose to

reach your destination

At first we must find the resultant velocity of your plane and the wind

The south and west are perpendicular, then the resultant velocity is

→ v_{R}=\sqrt{(v_{p})^{2}+(v_{w})^{2}}

→ v_{p}=150 km/h ,  v_{w}=50 km/h

→ v_{R}=\sqrt{(150)^{2}+(50)^{2}}=158.11 km/h

To cancel the velocity of the wind, the pilot should maintain the velocity

of the plane at 158.11 km/h

The direction of the velocity is the angle between the resultant velocity

and the vertical (south)

→ The direction of the velocity is tan^{-1}\frac{50}{150}=18.4°

The direction of the velocity is 18.4° west of south

<em>You should choose airspeed 158.11 km/h at 18.4° west of south</em>

a runner covers the last straigjt stretch of a race in 4 s. during that time, he speeds up from 5m/s to 9m/s.
PtichkaEL [24]

During that final period of time,
his acceleration is
                                (9 m/s - 5 m/s) / (4 sec) = 1 m/s² .

How much energy is needed to raise a 50kg block up from the ground to a height of 5 meters?​
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    Pe = 2452.5 J

Explanation:

Data

mass = 50 kg

height = 5 m

gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Process

The energy of this process is Potential energy which is proportional to the mass of the body, the gravity and the height of the body.

           Pe = mgh

Substitution

           Pe = (50)(5)(9.81)

Simplification

           Pe = 2452.5 J
