Answer:
12.17 m/s²
Explanation:
The formula of period of a simple pendulum is given as,
T = 2π√(L/g)........................ Equation 1
Where T = period of the simple pendulum, L = length of the simple pendulum, g = acceleration due to gravity of the planet. π = pie
making g the subject of the equation,
g = 4π²L/T²................... Equation 2
Given: T = 1.8 s, l = 1.00 m
Constant: π = 3.14
Substitute into equation 2
g = (4×3.14²×1)/1.8²
g = 12.17 m/s²
Hence the acceleration due to gravity of the planet = 12.17 m/s²
Answer:
If the ray of light is deflected by 45 degrees by the first mirror its total deflection by mirror (I) is 90 deg. (incident = 45 and exit ray equals 45 deg)
The second mirror will cause a net deflection of 90 degrees and the total deflection will be 180 deg or in opposite direction to the incident ray.
It accelerates in the y component (bc of gravity) AND the x-component (b/c of the friction force).
Answer:
the ball's velocity was approximately 0.66 m/s
Explanation:
Recall that we can study the motion of the baseball rolling off the table in vertical component and horizontal component separately.
Since the velocity at which the ball was rolling is entirely in the horizontal direction, it doesn't affect the vertical motion that can therefore be studied as a free fall, where only the constant acceleration of gravity is affecting the vertical movement.
Then, considering that the ball, as it falls covers a vertical distance of 0.7 meters to the ground, we can set the equation of motion for this, and estimate the time the ball was in the air:
0.7 = (1/2) g t^2
solve for t:
t^2 = 1.4 / g
t = 0.3779 sec
which we can round to about 0.38 seconds
No we use this time in the horizontal motion, which is only determined by the ball's initial velocity (vi) as it takes off:
horizontal distance covered = vi * t
0.25 = vi * (0.38)
solve for vi:
vi = 0.25/0.38 m/s
vi = 0.65798 m/s
Then the ball's velocity was approximately 0.66 m/s
Answer:
0.47 N
Explanation:
Here we have a ball in motion along a circular track.
For an object in circular motion, there is a force that "pulls" the object towards the centre of the circle, and this force is responsible for keeping the object in circular motion.
This force is called centripetal force, and its magnitude is given by:
where
m is the mass of the object
is the angular velocity
r is the radius of the circle
For the ball in this problem we have:
m = 40 g = 0.04 kg is the mass of the ball
is the angular velocity
r = 30 cm = 0.30 m is the radius of the circle
Substituting, we find the force:
