Newton's law of conservation states that energy of an isolated system remains a constant. It can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to the other.
Implying the above law of conservation of energy in the case of pendulum we can conclude that at the bottom of the swing the entire potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy. Also the potential energy is zero at this point.
Mathematically also potential energy is represented as
Potential energy= mgh
Where m is the mass of the pendulum.
g is the acceleration due to gravity
h is the height from the bottom z the ground.
At the bottom of the swing,the height is zero, hence the potential energy is also zero.
The kinetic energy is represented mathematically as
Kinetic energy= 1/2 mv^2
Where m is the mass of the pendulum
v is the velocity of the pendulum
At the bottom the pendulum has the maximum velocity. Hence the kinetic energy is maximum at the bottom.
Also as it has been mentioned energy can neither be created nor destroyed hence the entire potential energy is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom and would be equivalent to 895 J.
The equation is
s= d/t
In this case you would have to write it out as:
s= 20/5
Speed = 4
Answer:
It would take the object 5.4 s to reach the ground.
Explanation:
Hi there!
The equation of the height of a free-falling object at any given time, neglecting air resistance, is the following:
h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²
Where:
h = height of the object at time t.
h0 = initial height.
v0 = initial velocity.
g = acceleration due to gravity (-32.2 ft/s² considering the upward direction as positive).
t = time
Let´s supose that the object is dropped and not thrown so that v0 = 0. Then:
h = h0 + 1/2 · g · t²
We have to find the time at which h = 0:
0 = 470 ft - 1/2 · 32.2 ft/s² · t²
Solving for t:
-470 ft = -16.1 ft/s² · t²
-470 ft / -16.1 ft/s² = t²
t = 5.4 s
Answer:
<u>Frequency</u>- number of wave cycles that occur in a given amount of time.
<u>Pitch</u>- number of wavelengths in a given amount of time.
<u>Amplitude</u>- fluctuation or displacement of a wave from its mean value. That means how high or low they are away from the center line.
<u>Volume</u>- The perception of loudness from the intensity of a sound wave. The higher the intensity of a sound, the louder it is perceived in our ears, and the higher volume it has.
<u>Wavelength</u>- the distance between the tops of the "waves".
