what do you think is the purpose of a periscope? Are there any other uses for periscopes besides for submarines?

Military personnel also use periscopes in some gun turrets and in armoured vehicles. More complex periscopes using prisms or advanced fibre optics instead of mirrors and providing magnification operate on submarines and in various fields of science

A 1280 kg car is moving 4.92 m/s. a 509 N force then pushes it forward for 28.7 m. what is its final KE?(unit=J)PLEASE HELP
laila [671]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: total energy = 30100.4 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (KE) is the energy due to the movement of and object, its units are joules (J)

Data

mass = 1280 kg

speed = 4.92 m/s

Force = 509 N

distance = 28.7 m

Formula

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

Work = Fd

Process

- Calculate Kinetic energy

- Calculate work

- Add both results

KE = \frac{1}{2} (1280)(4.92)^{2}

KE = 15492.1 J

Work = (509)(28.7)

Work = 14608.3 J

Total = 15492.1 + 14608.3

Total energy = 30100.4 J

Compare the time period of two simple pendulums of length 4m and 16m at a place.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum

Explanation:

Recall that the period (T) of a pendulum of length (L)  is defined as:

T=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }

where "g" is the local acceleration of gravity.

SInce both pendulums are at the same place, "g" is the same for both, and when we compare the two periods, we get:

T_1=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{\frac{4}{g} } \\T_2=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{\frac{16}{g} } \\ \\\frac{T_2}{T_1} =\sqrt{\frac{16}{4} } =2

therefore the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum.
