The force of gravity is the only force that keeps a pendulum in motion. both the force increases the speed of the pendulum on the downswing and decreases it's speed on its upswing.
If it produces 20J of light energy in a second, then that 20J is the 10% of the supply that becomes useful output.
20 J/s = 10% of Supply
20 J/s = (0.1) x (Supply)
Divide each side by 0.1:
Supply = (20 J/s) / (0.1)
<em>Supply = 200 J/s </em>(200 watts)

Here's something to think about: What could you do to make the lamp more efficient ? Answer: Use it for a heater !
If you use it for a heater, then the HEAT is the 'useful' part, and the light is the part that you really don't care about. Suddenly ... bada-boom ... the lamp is 90% efficient !
Answer:
≈ 2.1 R
Explanation:
The moment of inertia of the bodies can be calculated by the equation
I = ∫ r² dm
For bodies with symmetry this tabulated, the moment of inertia of the center of mass
Sphere
= 2/5 M R²
Spherical shell
= 2/3 M R²
The parallel axes theorem allows us to calculate the moment of inertia with respect to different axes, without knowing the moment of inertia of the center of mass
I =
+ M D²
Where M is the mass of the body and D is the distance from the center of mass to the axis of rotation
Let's start with the spherical shell, axis is along a diameter
D = 2R
Ic =
+ M D²
Ic = 2/3 MR² + M (2R)²
Ic = M R² (2/3 + 4)
Ic = 14/3 M R²
The sphere
Is =
+ M [
²
Is = Ic
2/5 MR² + M
² = 14/3 MR²
² = R² (14/3 - 2/5)
= √ (R² (64/15)
= 2,066 R
Answer:
1110 N
Explanation:
First, find the acceleration.
Given:
Δx = 300 m
v₀ = 85.5 km/h = 23.75 m/s
v = 0 m/s
Find: a
v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
(0 m/s)² = (23.75 m/s)² + 2a (300 m)
a = -0.94 m/s²
Find the force:
F = ma
F = (1180 kg) (-0.94 m/s²)
F = -1110 N
The magnitude of the force is 1110 N.
