Answer:

The period of a pendulum does not depend on the mass of the ball, but only on the length of the string. Two pendula with different masses but the same length will have the same period. Two pendula with different lengths will different periods; the pendulum with the longer string will have the longer period.

Describe two experiments to determine the speed of propagation of a transverse wave on a rope. You have the following tools to u

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

#See solution for details.

Explanation:

Tools: $stopwatch, \ meter \ stick, \ mass \ measuring \ scale , \ force \ measuring \ device$ .

$Experiment \ 1$ :Calculate the speed of the wave using the time, $t$ it takes to travel along the rope. Rope's length, $L$ is measured using the meter stick.

-Attach one end of rope to a wall or post, shake from the unfixed end to generate a pulse. Measure the the time it takes for the pulse to reach the wall once it starts traveling using the stopwatch.

-Speed of the pulse can then be obtained as:

$v=\frac{L}{t}$

$Experiment \ 2$ : Apply force of known value to the rope then use the following relation equation to find the speed of a pulse that travels on the rope.

$v=\sqrt{\frac{F}{\mu}}\ ,\mu=\frac{m}{L}$

-Use the measuring stick and measuring scale to determine $L,m$ values of the rope then obtain $\mu$ .

-Use the force measuring constant to determine $F$ . These values can the be substituted in $Experiment \ 1$ to obtain $v.$

Which evidence did Alfred Wegener’s original theory of continental drift have access to?

Sophie [7]

Answer:

Evidence for continental drift

Wegener knew that fossil plants and animals such as mesosaurs, a freshwater reptile found only South America and Africa during the Permian period, could be found on many continents. He also matched up rocks on either side of the Atlantic Ocean like puzzle pieces.
