Answer:

Explanation:

n = 3.00e8/2.22e8 = 1.35

1.00sin24.5 = 1.35sinθ

θ = 17.9°

n an experiment of a simple pendulum, measurements show that the pendulum has length m, mass kg, and period s. Take m/s2 . i. Us

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The answer is " $(1.265 \pm 0.010) \ s \ and \ 0.709 \%$ "

Explanation:

In point i:

$T_{theo}= 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

$=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{0.397}{9.8}}\\\\= 1.265 \ s$

If error in the theoretical time period :

$\frac{\Delta T_{theo}}{T_theo} = \frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta l }{l}\\\\\Delta T_{theo} = 1.265 \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{0.006}{0.397}$

$= 0.010 \ s$

$T_{theo} = (1.265 \pm 0.010) \ s$

In point ii:

$\% \ difference = \frac{|T_{exp} -T_{theo}|}{\frac{T_{exp}+T_{theo}}{2}} \times 100$

<h3> $= \frac{1.274 -1.265}{\frac{1.274+1.265}{2}} \times 100\\\\=0.709 \%$ </h3>
