A pendulum is an object hung from a fixed point that swings back and forth under the action of gravity. In the example of the playground swing, the swing is supported by chains that are attached to fixed points at the top of the swing set. When the swing is raised and released, it will move freely back and forth due to the force of gravity on it. The swing continues moving back and forth without any extra outside help until friction (between the air and the swing and between the chains and the attachment points) slows it down and eventually stops it.

An object is thrown directly up (positive direction) with a velocity (v o ) of 20.0 m/s and d o = 0. How high does it rise (v =
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

h=20.38 m

Explanation:

Given that

Initial speed of object u = 20 m/s

Acceleration  g= 9.8\ \frac{m}{s^2}

We know that

v^2=u^2-2gh

Here acceleration and velocity is in opposite direction so the object will come rest after reaching at distance h.When body will reach at its highest position then velocity will become zero(v=0).

Now by putting the values

v^2=u^2-2gh

0 =20^2-2\times 9.1\times h

h=20.38 m

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

A massive object (like a galaxy cluster) bends the light from an object (like a quasar) that lies behind it.

Explanation:

A massive object, like a galaxy cluster, is able to deform the space-time shape as a consequence of its own gravity, so the light that it is coming from a source that is behind it in the line of sight will be bend or distorts in a way that will be magnified, making small arcs around the cluster with the image of the background object.

This technique is useful for astronomers since they make research of faraway objects (at hight redshift) that otherwise will difficult to detect with a telescope.

A rocket sled for testing equipment under large accelerations starts at rest and accelerates according to the expression a = (3.
mash [69]

Answer:

9.6 m

Explanation:

This is a  case of motion under variable acceleration . So no law of motion formula will be applicable here. We shall have to integrate the given equation .

a = 3.6 t + 5.6

d²x / dt² = 3.6 t + 5.6

Integrating on both sides

dx /dt = 3.6 t² / 2 + 5.6 t + c

where c is a constant.

dx /dt = 1.8  t²  + 5.6 t + c

when t = 0 , velocity dx /dt is zero

Putting these values in the equation above

0 = 0 +0 + c

c = 0

dx /dt = 1.8  t²  + 5.6 t

Again integrating on both sides

x = 1.8 t³ / 3 + 5.6 x t² /2 + c₁

x = 0.6 t³  + 2.8  t²  + c₁

when t =0,  x = 0

c₁ = 0

x = 0.6 t³  + 2.8  t²  

when t = 1.6

x = .6 x 1.6³ + 2.8 x 1.6²

= 2.4576 + 7.168

= 9.6256

What question could you ask about kinetic energy which will include the variables that affect it?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
KE= (1/2) mv²

So, the variables we need to include in our question would be a varable for a mass(m) of an object at some velocity(v).

My Answer:

(This is just an example question, yours can be different)
