Answer:A pendulum illustrates the conservation of energy. The pendulum has the most potential energy - the energy of position or stored energy - when it is highest above the ground. It has the most kinetic energy - the energy of motion - when it is moving the fastest. As the pendulum swings downward, the potential energy changes to kinetic energy. As it swings upward, the kinetic energy changes to potential energy. The back-and-forth swinging of a pendulum is simple harmonic motion - motion that repeats periodically. The period of a pendulum is the time needed for one complete swing back and forth. This period is constant; it changes only if the length of the pendulum is changed. Ask student to time the periods of their pendulums when the pendulums swing through a longer distance (larger arc) or shorter distance (smaller arc). They will discover that the periods are the same. Have the students then change the mass by adding one or more washer to their pendulum. When the students time the periods, they discover that the period does not change if the mass is changed. Ask students to experiment to find what will change the period of the pendulum. Students will discover that the period will change if the pendulum’s length is changed.

What caused the U. S. to enter World War Il?
solniwko [45]

The US never wanted to join World War II so they isolated themselves from everything that was going on and tried to stay neutral (Over time, we sided with the Allies). Mainly, we entered due to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. After the bombing, the US decided to declare war on Japan. Soon after, Nazi Germany's leader declared war on the US and then the US was officially in the war.

So, all in all, it was the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.

Hope this helps :)

Read this passage from the U.S. Constitution:
Zolol [24]

The correct answer is C) The government gets their power from the people.

The US Constitution was developed after the failures of America's first constitution ( the Articles of Confederation). The goal of this new constitution was to develop a government structure in which the people had control. This is why the passage above uses the words "We the people.." This implies that the government is created by the people and it also implies that this is where the government gets their power from.
