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.

Volcanologists and seismologist are specialzed in what
antiseptic1488 [7]

The answer is:

They are specialized in geology and geophysics

1) Volcanologists are scientific researchers who study the properties of volcanoes and develop the science of predicting volcanic eruptions accurately.

- Volcanoes are the results of fissures in the earth's crust, from which magma, gases, rocks, and ashes can erupt.  


-Volcanic eruptions and their impact on the atmosphere are investigated by specialist geologists known as volcanologists.


A) Volcanologists are scientists who use a variety of sophisticated equipment to measure and analyze volcanic activity, lava, rock, ashes and gases as well as earthquakes caused by eruptions.


B) Also, they measure the magnitude and intensity of explosions, placing them on a scale from 1 to 8 [volcanic explosivity index].  


C)Volcanologists monitor both active and dormant volcanoes to try to predict eruptions and minimize adverse effects on people and their environment.


D)Also, they spend a lot of time collecting and analyzing samples of debris, rocks and other products from extinct volcanoes to gain a better understanding of the processes behind the volcanic activity and the impact former eruptions had in shaping the climate.


2) Seismologists are Earth scientists, specialized in geophysics, who study the genesis and the propagation of seismic waves in geological materials.


-Their research aims at interpreting the geological composition and structures of the Earth. In the case of earthquakes, seismologists evaluate the potential dangers and seek to minimize their impact through the improvement of construction standards.

A 2.93 kg particle has a velocity of (2.98 i hat - 3.98 j) m/s.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

a) The x and y components of the momentum are 8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} and -11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}, respectively.

b) The magnitude and direction of its momentum are approximately 14.567 kilogram-meters per second and 306.823º.

Explanation:

a) The vectorial equation of momentum is represented by the following expression:

\vec p = m\cdot \vec v (1)

Where:

\vec p - Vector momentum, measured in kilogram-meters per second.

m - Mass of the particle, measured in kilograms.

\vec v - Vector velocity, measured in meters per second.

If we know that m = 2.93\,kg and \vec v = 2.98\,\hat{i}-3.98\,\hat{j}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right], then the momentum is:

\vec p = (2.93)\cdot (2.98\,\hat{i}-3.98\,\hat{j})\,\,\,\left[\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right]

\vec p = 8.731\,\hat{i}-11.661\,\hat{j}\,\,\,\left[\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right]

The x and y components of the momentum are 8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} and -11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}, respectively.

b) The magnitude and direction of momentum are represented by the following expressions:

\|\vec p \| = \sqrt{p_{x}^{2}+p_{y}^{2}} (2)

\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{p_{y}}{p_{x}} \right) (3)

Where:

\|\vec p\| - Magnitude of momentum, measured in kilogram-meters per second.

\theta - Direction of momentum, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

If we know that p_{x} = 8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} and p_{y} = -11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}, then the magnitude and direction of momentum are, respectively:

\|\vec p\| = \sqrt{\left(8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right)^{2}+\left(-11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right)^{2}}

\|\vec p\| \approx 14.567\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}

\theta =\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{-11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} }{8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} } \right)

\theta \approx 306.823^{\circ}

The magnitude and direction of its momentum are approximately 14.567 kilogram-meters per second and 306.823º.
