I believe the answer is <span>c. Factor 1 is a natural factor and Factor 2 is a human induced factor.
The amount of heat received by the sun has increased because of the amount of CO2 which human expelled to the atmosphere.
Because of this CO2, the heat from the sun couldn't be reflected outside the atmosphere and trapped within the earth.</span>

A pendulum consists of a 2.0 kg stone swinging on a4.0 m string of negligible mass. The stone has a speed of 8.0 m/swhen it pass

arlik [135]

Answer:

a) $v_{60^{o}} =4.98 m/s$

b) $\theta_{max}=79.34^{o}$

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by doing an energy analysis on the given situation. So the very first thing we can do in order to solve this is to draw a diagram of the situation. (see attached picture)

So, in an energy analysis, basically you will always have the same amount of energy in any position of the pendulum. (This is in ideal conditions) So in this case:

$K_{lowest}+U_{lowest}=K_{60^{o}}+U_{60^{0}}$

where K is the kinetic energy and U is the potential energy.

We know the potential energy at the lowest of its trajectory will be zero because it will have a relative height of zero. So the equation simplifies to:

$K_{lowest}=K_{60^{o}}+U_{60^{0}}$

So now, we can substitute the respective equations for kinetic and potential energy so we get:

$\frac{1}{2}mv_{lowest}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{60^{o}}^{2}+mgh_{60^{o}}$

we can divide both sides of the equation into the mass of the pendulum so we get:

$\frac{1}{2}v_{lowest}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}v_{60^{o}}^{2}+gh_{60^{o}}$

and we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to get:

$v_{lowest}^{2}=v_{60^{o}}^{2}+2gh_{60^{o}}$

so we can solve this for $v_{60^{o}}$ . So we get:

$v_{60^{o}}=\sqrt{v_{lowest}^{2}-2gh_{60^{0}}}$

so we just need to find the height of the stone when the pendulum is at a 60 degree angle from the vertical. We can do this with the cos function. First, we find the vertical distance from the axis of the pendulum to the height of the stone when the angle is 60°. We will call this distance y. So:

$cos \theta = \frac{y}{4m}$

so we solve for y to get:

$y = 4cos \theta$

so we substitute the angle to get:

y=4cos 60°

y=2 m

so now we can find the height of the stone when the angle is 60°

$h_{60^{o}}=4m-2m$

$h_{60^{o}}=2m$

So now we can substitute the data in the velocity equation we got before:

$v_{60^{o}}=\sqrt{v_{lowest}^{2}-2gh_{60^{0}}}$

$v_{60^{o}} = \sqrt{(8 m/s)^{2}-2(9.81 m/s^{2})(2m)}$

so

$v_{60^{o}}=4.98 m/s$

b) For part b, we can do an energy analysis again to figure out what the height of the stone is at its maximum height, so we get.

$K_{lowest}+U_{lowest}=K_{max}+U_{max}$

In this case, we know that $U_{lowest}$ will be zero and $K_{max}$ will be zero as well since at the maximum point, the velocity will be zero.

So this simplifies our equation.

$K_{lowest} =U_{max}$

And now we substitute for the respective kinetic energy and potential energy equations.

$\frac{1}{2}mv_{lowest}^{2}=mgh_{max}$

again, we can divide both sides of the equation into the mass, so we get:

$\frac{1}{2}v_{lowest}^{2}=gh_{max}$

and solve for the height:

$h_{max}=\frac{v_{lowest}^{2}}{2g}$

and substitute:

$h_{max}=\frac{(8m/s)^{2}}{2(9.81 m/s^{2})}$

to get:

$h_{max}=3.26m$

This way we can find the distance between the axis and the maximum height to determine the angle of the pendulum about the vertical.

y=4-3.26 = 0.74m

next, we can use the cos function to find the max angle with the vertical.

$cos \theta_{max}= \frac{0.74}{4}$

$\theta_{max}=cos^{-1}(\frac{0.74}{4})$

so we get:

$\theta_{max}=79.34^{o}$

Why is gravitational acceleration almost always a factor in determining pressure?

Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every object attracts every other object with a force. For any two objects, this force is directly proportional to the mass of each object. The greater the masses, the greater the force of attraction between them. Newton also deduced that this force decreases as the square of the distance between the centers of the objects increases. The farther away the objects are from each other, the less the force of attraction between them.
