<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.

How do earthquakes affect earths surface?
ivanzaharov [21]
Some of the reasons that can cause can earthquake are volcanic eruptions, the grinding of tectonic plates beneath the earth's crust and violent explosions which can be artificially induced as well. No matter what the reason is, earthquakes affect the environment and earth's surface. Noticeable cracks have formed on the earth's surface after earthquakes. If the tremors are violent, it can result in the destruction of landscapes. The mountains become prone to land sliding. the glacier's become a threat because of fear of avalanches. tsunamis which are earthquakes in the ocean bed can cause heavy flooding which causes water to cross all boundaries and shores and flood entire cities. Earthquakes caused by volcanoes can result in the spewing of so much lava that it may spill everywhere and cool changing the surface of the earth geologically as well as the ash causing aerial pollution.

a DJ uses a 110-volt outlet to plug in a strobe light. if the current flowing through the light is 0.050 amps, how much resistan
tigry1 [53]

Ohms Law: V = IR

V is the voltage in volts

I is the current in amps

R is the resistance in Ohms

Rearrange: R = V/I

R = (110)/(0.050)

R = 2200

There are 2200 Ohms of resistance in the circuit.

A car with a mass of 850kg is moving at a speed of 72km/h when colliding with a concrete wall until it stops. After the collisio
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Explanation:

The vehicle is experiencing a large force created by the concrete wall.

Equation

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a * d

Givens

vf = 0   The car eventually does stop.

vi = 72 km/hr * [ 1000 m/  km] * [1 hour / 3600 seconds]

vi = 20 meters / second

a = ?

m = 850 kg

Solution

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2a*d

0 = 20 m/s + 2* 2 *a

-20 m/s = 4a

-20/4 =   a

a = - 5 m/s^2   The minus sign tells you the vehicle is slowing down. It sure should be.

Force = m * a

F = - 850 * (-5)

F =  - 4250 N

The car provides a 4250 N force on it going east to west and a 4250 N force going from west to east provided by the concrete wall.
