Answer: 187.68 m

Explanation:

Given

Time period T=27.5\ s

The time period of a pendulum is given by

\Rightarrow T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L}{g}}

where L=height of tower

Put values

\Rightarrow 27.5=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L}{9.8}}\\\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{27.5^2\times 9.8}{(2\pi )^2}=187.68\ m

Jack and Jill are on two different floors of their high rise office building and looking out of their respective windows. Jack s
Maru [420]

Answer:

a) speed when Jack sees the pot : 12.92 meters per second

b) height difference 163.115 meters

Explanation:

First to calculate te initial speed we use the acceleration formula:

a= v1-v0/t

Acceleration being gravity's acceleration (9.8 m/s^2)

v1 being the speed when Jill sees the pot

v0 when Jack sees it

and t the time between

Solving for v0 it would be

v1 - a*t = v0

replacing

58 m/s -  9.8 m/s^2 *4.6 s = v0 = 12.92 m/s

For the second question we use the position formula setting y0 and t0 as the position and time when jack sees the pot. (and setting the positive axis downward I.E. one meter below jack would be 1m not -1m)

The formula is

y0 + v0*t + 1/2 g *t^2 = yt

replacing

0m + 12.92m/s* 4.6 s + 1/2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * (4.6 s)^2 = 163.115 m

Explain the different methods that can be used to model the motion of an object.
Simora [160]

Answer:

You can describe the motion of an object by its position, speed, direction, and acceleration. An object is moving if its position relative to a fixed point is changing. idk if this helps.

Ask Your Teacher Two long, straight wires are parallel and 11 cm apart. One carries a current of 2.9 A, the other a current of 5
dsp73

Answer:

The magnitude of force per unit length of one wire on the other is 2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N and the direction is away from one another

The magnitude of force per unit length of one wire on the other is 2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N and the direction is towards each other.

Explanation:

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability = 4\pi\times 10^{-7}\ N/A^2

i_1 = Current in first wire = 2.9 A

i_2 = Current in second wire = 5.3 A

r = Gap between the wires = 11 cm

Force per unit length

F_{12}=F_{21}=\frac{\mu_0 i_1i_2}{2\pi r}\\ =\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 2.9\times 5.3}{2\pi 0.11}\\ =2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N

The magnitude of force per unit length of one wire on the other is 2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N and the direction is away from one another

F_{12}=F_{21}=\frac{\mu_0 i_1i_2}{2\pi r}\\ =\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 2.9\times 5.3}{2\pi 0.11}\\ =2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N

The magnitude of force per unit length of one wire on the other is 2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N and the direction is towards each other.
