provides some pertinent background for this problem. A pendulum is constructed from a thin, rigid, and uniform rod with a small

sphere attached to the end opposite the pivot. This arrangement is a good approximation to a simple pendulum (period = 0.61 s), because the mass of the sphere (lead) is much greater than the mass of the rod (aluminum). When the sphere is removed, the pendulum no longer is a simple pendulum, but is then a physical pendulum. What is the period of the physical pendulum?

Answer:

the period of the physical pendulum is 0.498 s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

T_{simple = 0.61 s

we know that, the relationship between T and angular frequency is;

T = 2π/ω ---------- let this be equation 1

Also, the angular frequency of physical pendulum is;

ω = √(mgL / I ) ------ let this equation 2

where m is mass of pendulum, L is distance between axis of rotation and the center of gravity of rod and I  is moment of inertia of rod.

Now, moment of inertia of thin uniform rod D is;

I = \frac{1}{3}mD²

since we were not given the length of the rod but rather the period of the simple pendulum, lets combine this three equations.

we substitute equation 2 into equation 1

we have;

T = 2π/ω OR T = 2π/√(mgL/I) OR T = 2π√(I/mgL)

so we can use I = \frac{1}{3}mD² for moment of inertia of the rod

Since center of gravity of the uniform rod lies at the center of rod

so that L =  \frac{1}{2}D.

now, substituting these equations, the period becomes;

T = 2π/√(I/mgL) OR T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{1}{3}mD^2 }{mg(\frac{1}{2})D } } OR T = 2π√(2D/3g )  ----- equation 3

length of rod D is still unknown, so from equation 1 and 2 ( period of pendulum ),

we have;

ω_{simple = 2π/T_{simple OR  ω_{simple = √(g/D) OR  ω_{simple = 2π√( D/g )  

so we simple solve for D/g and insert into equation 3

so we have;

T = √(2/3) × T_{simple

we substitute in value of T_{simple

T = √(2/3) × 0.61 s

T = 0.498 s

Therefore, the period of the physical pendulum is 0.498 s

It is determined that a certain light wave has a wavelength of 3.012 ×10−12 m. The light travels at 2.99 ×108 m/s. What is the f
horsena [70]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity=frequency*wavelength

velocity = 2.99*10^8 m/s

frequency = ?

wavelength = 3.012*10^-12

2.99*10^8m/s = (f)(3.012*10^-12)

f=9.58*10^19 Hertz

Star A and Star B have measured stellar parallax of 1.0 arc second and 0.75 arc second, respectively. Which star is closer? How
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Star A is closer than Star B

Explanation:

As we know that in parallax method of distance measurement the angle subtended by the star when it covers a distance of one Parsec arc length, it is known as parallax angle

Here we can say

angle = \frac{1 Parsec}{distance}

so we have

distance = \frac{1 Parsec}{angle}

so here we have

angle subtended by Star A = 1 arc sec

angle subtended by star B = 0.75 arc sec

now we have

distance for star A is given as

d_a = \frac{1 Parsec}{1} = 1 Parsec

distance of star B is given as

d_b = \frac{1 Parsec}{0.75} = 1.33 Parsec

So star A is closer than star B

If an object has a mass of 20 grams and a volume of 40 cm3, what is its density in g/cm3?
sattari [20]
Density = Mass/Volume 
So, given mass = 20 g and volume = 40 cm^3 
By substituting in above equation, Density = 20/40 = 0.5 g/cm^3
Hope it helps.
