What are the differences between the practical and the ideal pendulum​

Physics
1 answer:
ankoles [38]3 years ago
4 0

lf a heavy point mass is suspended by a weightless, inextensible and perfectly flexible string from a rigid support, then this arrangement is called simple pendulum.

In practice, however, these requirements cannot be fulfilled. So we use a practical pendulum.

A practical pendulum consists of a small metallic solid sphere suspended by a fine silk thread from a rigid support. This is the practical simple pendulum which is nearest to the ideal simple pendulum.

Note :

The metallic sphere is called the bob.

When the bob is displaced slightly to one side from its mean position and released, it oscillates about its mean position in a vertical plane.

What is the force required to lift the balloon with
Olin [163]

No force is required to lift that balloon. In fact, force is required to hold it down, and if you let go, it's up, up, and away.

Since the balloon's density is less than the density of the air around it, it's lighter than the air it displaces, there is a net upward buoyant force acting on it, and it floats up !

If the work done to stretch an ideal spring by 4.0 cm is 6.0 j, what is the spring constant (force constant) of this spring?
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The spring constant is 3750 N/m  

Explanation:

Use the following two relationships:

(Work) = (Force) x (Displacement)

(Force) = (Spring constant) x (Displacement)

=>

(Spring constant) = (Force) / (Displacement) = (Work) / (Displacement)^2

(Spring constant) = 6.0 kg.(m^2/s^2) / 0.0016 m^2 = 3750 N/m

The spring constant is 3750 N/m

A dog running at 10 m/s is 30m behind a rabbit moving at 5 m/s. when will the dog catch up with the rabbit assuming both their v
dedylja [7]

The will dog catch up with the rabbit in 6 minutes assuming both their velocities remain constant during the chase.

<h3>What time will the dog catch the rabbit?</h3>

The time that the dog will catch up with the rabbit is given as follows:

Let the distance covered by the rabbit be x.

Distance covered by dog = x + 30

  • Time taken = distance/speed

The time taken will be the same T

  1. Time taken by dog, T = (x + 30)/10
  2. Time taken by rabbit, T = x/5

Equating both times.

(x + 30)/10 = x/5

x = 30 m

Solving for T in equation (ii);

T = 30/5 = 6 minutes

In conclusion, time is obtained as a ratio of distance and speed.

What causes different colors to appear in the sky.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The colors of the sunset result from a phenomenon called scattering. Molecules and small particles in the atmosphere change the direction of light rays, causing them to scatter. ... The short-wavelength blue and violet are scattered by molecules in the air much more than other colors of the spectrum.
