The starting angle θθ of a pendulum does not affect its period for θ<<1θ<<1. At higher angles, however, the period TT increases with increasing θθ.

The relation between TT and θθ can be derived by solving the equation of motion of the simple pendulum (from F=ma)

−gsinθ=lθ¨−gain⁡θ=lθ¨

For small angles, θ≪1,θ≪1, and hence sinθ≈θsin⁡θ≈θ. Hence,

θ¨=−glθθ¨=−glθ

This second-order differential equation can be solved to get θ=θ0cos(ωt),ω=gl−−√θ=θ0cos⁡(ωt),ω=gl. The period is thus T=2πω=2πlg−−√T=2πω=2πlg, which is independent of the starting angle θ0θ0.

For large angles, however, the above derivation is invalid. Without going into the derivation, the general expression of the period is T=2πlg−−√(1+θ2016+...)T=2πlg(1+θ0216+...). At large angles, the θ2016θ0216 term starts to grow big and cause

The density of water is 1.00 g/cm3. What is its density in kg/m3?
r-ruslan [8.4K]
1 g = 1 ÷ 1000 kg
= 0.001 kg

1 cm³ = 1 ÷ 100 ÷ 100 ÷ 100 m³
= 0.000001 m³

1 g/cm³ = 1 g / 1 cm³
= 0.001 kg / 0.000001 m³
= 1000 kg/m³

The density is 1000 kg/m³.

When light in vacuum is incident at the polarizing angle (Brewster's angle) on a certain glass slab, the angle of refraction is
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

θ( p ) + θ( r ) = 90  

θ (r) = angle of refraction and θ ( p ) is polarising angle.

given θ ( r ) = 31.8

θ ( p ) = 90 - 31.8 = 58.2 degree

ii ) Tanθ ( p ) = n ( refractive index ) = Tan 58.2 = 1.6
