Answer:
f.The period is independent of the suspended mass.
Explanation:
The period of a pendulum is given by
where
L is the length of the pendulum
g is the acceleration due to gravity
From the formula, we see that:
1) the period of the pendulum depends only on its length, L, and it is proportional to the square root of the length
2) the period does not depend neither on the mass of the pendulum, nor on its amplitude of oscillation
So, the only correct statements are
f.The period is independent of the suspended mass.
Note: statement "e.The period is proportional to the length of the wire" is also wrong, because the period is NOT proportional to the length of the wire, but it is proportional to the square root of it.
1) At the moment of being at the top, the piston will not only tend to push the penny up but will also descend at a faster rate at which the penny can reach in 'free fall', in that short distance. Therefore, at the highest point, the penny will lose contact with the piston. Therefore the correct answer is C.
2) To solve this problem we will apply the equations related to the simple harmonic movement, hence we have that the acceleration can be defined as
Where,
a = Acceleration
A = Amplitude
= Angular velocity
From a reference system in which the downward acceleration is negative due to the force of gravity we will have to
From the definition of frequency and angular velocity we have to
Therefore the maximum frequency for which the penny just barely remains in place for the full cycle is 2.5Hz
