<span>The displacement of the pendulum is directly proportional to the amplitude of the sine wave produced. The period would not change because the length of the pendulum rod remains the same.</span>

Answer:

The graphs that represent the displacement would be different, while the graphs that represent the period would be the same

Explanation:

The displacement of the two pendulums is different. In fact, in the first trial the amplitude of the oscillation of the pendulum is 5 cm, while in the second trial the amplitude of the oscillation is 10 cm. Since the displacement is given by the equation

x(t)=A sin(\omega t)

where A is the amplitude, we see that the displacement x(t) of the two trials will be different.

On the contrary, the period of oscillation in the two trials will be the same. In fact, the period of a pendulum is given by

T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where L is the length of the pendulum and g is the acceleration due to gravity. we see that the period depends only on the length of the pendulum, L, so since the same pendulum is used in the two trials, we can conclude that the period will be the same.

A 500 kg table with 4 legs rests on solid flat ground. I place 3 books on the center of the table with masses of 10 kg, 20 kg an
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

1,373.4 N

Explanation:

The mass of the table acts at the centre in addition to the books since that is the centre of gravity of the table.

Mass of books will be 10kg+20kg+30kg=60 kg

Total mass of table and books will be 500kg+60kg=560 kg

This mass is evenly distributed into the four legs hence 560kg/4 legs=140 kg per leg

Force is product of mass and acceleration due to gravity hence F=gm

Taking g as 9.81 m/s2 then

F=140*9.81=1,373.4 N

Therefore, rhe normal force is equivalent to 1,373.4 N

Determine the minimum size of glass tubing that can be used to measure water level. If the capillary rise in the tube does not e
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula to determine the size of a capillary tube is

h = 2•T•Cos θ / r•ρ•g

Where

h = height of liquid level

T = surface tension

r = radius of capillary tube

ρ = density of liquid

θ = angle of contact = 0°

g =acceleration due to gravity=9.81m/s²

The liquid is water then,

ρ = 1000 kg / m³

Given that,

T = 0.0735 N/m

h = 0.25mm = 0.25 × 10^-3m

Then,

r = 2•T•Cos θ / h•ρ•g

r = 2 × 0.0735 × Cos0 / 2.5 × 10^-3 × 1000 × 9.81

r = 5.99 × 10^-3m

Then, r ≈ 6mm

The radius of the capillary tube is 6mm

So, the minimum size is

Volume = πr²h

Volume = π × 6² × 0.25

V = 2.83 mm³

The minimum size of the capillary tube is 2.83mm³

A worker pushes a crate horizontally across a warehouse floor with a force of 245 N at an angle of 55 degrees below the horizont
aev [14]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

given,

For exerted by the worker = 245 N

angle made with horizontal = 55°

we need to calculate Force which is not used to move the crate = ?

Movement of crate is due to the horizontal component of the force.

Crate will not move due to vertical force acting on the it.

F_y = F sin \theta

F_y = 245\times sin 55^0

F_y =200.69

hence, worker's force not used to move the crate is equal to 200.69

The correct answer is option A

A 2.74 g coin, which has zero potential energy at the surface, is dropped into a 12.2 m well. After the coin comes to a stop in
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

- 0.328J

Explanation:

POTENTIAL ENERGY = mgh

                                   = 0.00274 × 9.81×12.2  here 2.74g = 0.00274kg

                                   = 0.32792868 J

                                   = 0.328J

AS IT IS BELOW THE SURFACE HENCE MUST BE NEGATIVE

hence potential energy = - 0.328J
