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.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Both the Cold war and the Korean war are fought on the same ideology and principle.

Explanation:

The Korean war was important to the both the countries - United States and the USSR to show their supremacy. The Korean war is quite similar to the Cold war. The Korean war was considered as an important development in the Cold war as it was for the first time both the super powers of the world fought a "proxy war" in a third country. The ideology behind the war of communism and democracy and the confrontations of the two countries were same in the two wars. The war was fought by the communist North Kora supported by the USSR and China and the Democrat South Korea supported by USA and UK.

America handled both the war equally with the help of other democrat countries. Americas policy was to always support and spread democracy around the world. The Korea war was a proxy war for the Cold war.
