Answer: To increase the rigidity of the system you could hold the ruler at its midpoint so that the part of the ruler that oscillates is half as long as in the original experiment.
Explanation:
When a rule is displaced from its vertical position, it oscillates back and forth because of the restoring force opposing the displacement. That is, when the rule is on the left there is a force to the right.
By holding a ruler with one hand and deforming it with the other a force is generated in the opposite direction which is known as the restoring force. The restoring force causes the ruler to move back toward its stable equilibrium position, where the net force on it is zero. The momentum gained causes the ruler to move to the right leading to opposite deformation. This moves the ruler again to the left. The whole process is repeated until dissipative forces reduce the motion causing the ruler to come to rest.
The relationship between restoring force and displacement was described by Hooke's law. This states that displacement or deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force applied.
F= -kx, where,
F= restoring force
x= displacement or deformation
k= constant related to the rigidity of the system.
Therefore, the larger the force constant, the greater the restoring force, and the stiffer the system.
Answer:
Time zone is one important factor in difference in location and this in turn affects the result of the resolution and rotation of shadow produced from the sun or other illumination.
Therefore someone at a place might see a clear large shadow due to shinny sun reflection and another a small or dull Shadow at same time if the intensity of the sun or lighting source is going down.
Explanation:
The closer a body/object is to a lighting source the larger the shadow it produces, and the farther the body the smaller the shadow produced.
If the bulb is in series with something else, then . . .
-- The brightness of the bulb depends on the <em>other</em> device in the circuit.
-- If the other device is designed to use <em>less power</em> than the bulb, then the
other device gets <em>more power</em> than the bulb gets.
-- If the other device is designed to use <em>more power </em>than the bulb, then the
other device gets <em>less power</em> than the bulb gets.
-- If the other device is removed from the circuit, then the bulb doesn't light at all.
This description of the often-screwy behavior of a series circuit may partly explain
why the electric service in your home is not a series circuit.
