A spaceship captain lands on an unknown planet. Before venturing forth, he needs to find out the acceleration due to gravity on that planet. All he has available to him is some thin light string, a stopwatch, and a small 2.75-kg metal ball (it was a rough landing). So he lets the ball swing from a 1.5-m length of the string, starting at rest, and measures that it takes 1.9 s for it to swing from the place where he released it to the place where it first stops as it reverses direction. What is the acceleration due to gravity on this planet

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

g = 4,10 m/s

Explanation:

Este es un ejercicio de péndulo simple, donde la velocidad angular esta dada por

          w = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{g}{L} }[/tex]

la velocidad angular esta relacionada con el periodo

         w =2π/T

sustituimos

         [tex]\frac{2\pi }{T} = \sqrt{ \frac{g}{L} }[/tex]2pi/T = Ra g/L

         T² = [tex]4\pi ^2 \frac{ L}{g}[/tex]

          g = [tex]4\pi ^2 \ \frac{L}{T^2}[/tex]

el periodo es el tiempo de una oscilación completa, osea desde el punto donde se suelta hasta que regresa al mismo punto, en este caso tenemos medio periodo, desde donde se suelta hasta donde se detiene

       T/2 = 1,9

       T = 2  1,9

       T = 3,8 s  

calculemos

        g = 4π²  1,5 /3,8²

        g = 4,10 m/s

Light travels at a speed of equation m/s in air. What is the speed of light in glass, which has an index of refraction of 1.5?

A 0.0215 m diameter coin rolls up a 20.0 degree inclined plane. The coin starts with an initial angular speed of 55.2 rad/ s and rolls in a straight line without slipping. How much vertical height does it gain before it stops rolling?

Answers

Answer:

The coin will reach a vertical height of 0.027 meters before it stops rolling.

Explanation:

Let suppose that coin-ground system is a conservative system and begins at a height of zero. Since the coin is experimenting a general plane motion, which is a combination of translation and rotation. By Principle of Energy Conservation we have the following model:

[tex]K_{T}+K_{R} = U_{g}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]K_{T}[/tex] - Translational kinetic energy at the bottom of the incline, in joules.

[tex]K_{R}[/tex] - Rotational kinetic energy at the bottom of the incline, in joules.

[tex]U_{g}[/tex] - Gravitational potential energy at the top of the incline, in joules.

By definitions of Kinetic and Gravitational Potential Energy we expand (1):

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot I \cdot \omega ^{2} + \frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2} = m\cdot g\cdot h[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]I[/tex] - Momentum of inertia of the coin, in kilogram-square meters.

[tex]\omega[/tex] - Angular speed, in radians per second.

[tex]R[/tex] - Radius of the coin, in meters.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, in kilograms.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, in meters per square second.

[tex]h[/tex] - Height reached by the coin, in meters.

The momentum of inertia of the coin is calculated by:

[tex]I = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot r^{2}[/tex] (3)

Then, we expand and simplify (2):

[tex]\frac{3}{4}\cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2} = g\cdot h[/tex]

[tex]h = \frac{3\cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2}}{4\cdot g}[/tex]

If we know that [tex]R = 0.0108\,m[/tex], [tex]\omega = 55.2\,\frac{rad}{s}[/tex] and [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], then the height reached by the coin is:

[tex]h = 0.027\,m[/tex]

The coin will reach a vertical height of 0.027 meters before it stops rolling.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the equilibrium position of third charge be x distance from q₁.

Force on third charge due to q₁

= 9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ / x²

Force on third charge due to q₂

= 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ /( .40-x)²

Both the force will act in opposite direction and for balancing , they should be equal.

9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ / x² = 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ /( .40-x)²

5  / x² = 2 / ( .4 - x )²

Taking square root on both sides

2.236 / x = 1.414 / .4 - x

2.236 ( .4 - x ) = 1.414 x

.8944 - 2.236 x = 1.414 x

.8944 = 3.65 x

x = .245 m

24.5 cm

So the third charge should be at a distance of 24.5 cm from q₁ .

Answers

Oxygen has an atomic number 8, because it has 8 protons and 8 electrons.

The first shell of an atom can hold up to 2 electrons but oxygen has 8 electrons, in that eight electrons 2 are in the first shell, so it has 6 more electrons left. The second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, oxygen has only 6 more electrons after the first shell is full, so it will have 6 electrons in the second shell

From this we know that oxygen has 2 shells so it is in period 2, and by counting from left to right, the sixth box in period 2 lies on group 16

Therefore Oxygen lies on group 16 and period 2

If a car accelerates from rest at a constant 4 m/s
, how long will it take for the car to reach a
velocity of 28 m/s?​

Answers

Answer:

The time it will take for the car to reach a velocity of 28 m/s is 7 seconds

Explanation:

The parameters of the car are;

The acceleration of the car, a = 4 m/s²

The final velocity of the car, v = 28 m/s

The initial velocity of the car, u = 0 m/s (The car starts from rest)

The kinematic equation that can be used for finding (the time) how long it will take for the car to reach a velocity of 28 m/s is given as follows;

v = u + a·t

Where;

v = The final velocity of the car, v = 28 m/s

u = The initial velocity of the car = 0 m/s

a = The acceleration of the car = 4 m/s²

t = =The time it will take for the car to reach a velocity of 28 m/s

Therefore, we get;

t = (v - u)/a

t = (28 m/s - 0 m/s)/(4 m/s²) = 7 s

The time it will take for the car to reach a velocity of 28 m/s, t = 7 seconds.

Answers

Answer:1.) 2 seconds

2.) 4.5 hertz

3.) it will become one third is original value

4.)5.9 seconds

5.)0.87 meters

Explanation:

1. The time period of wave is 0.125 second

2. The frequency of a wave in the second rope is 1.5 hertz.

3. The frequency will become one third of its original value.

The Pacific Plate is moving 29 mm/year toward the north and 20 mm/year toward the west relative to the North American Plate. Show how to use geometry and the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the total relative motion toward the northwest.

Answers

Answer:

7 mm per year

Explanation:

It is given that :

The Pacific plate is moving towards north at = 29 mm per year

The Pacific plate is moving towards west at = 20 mm per year

We have to calculate the total relative motion towards the northwest.

So we have to find the resultant of the two motions.

Since the two movements are perpendicular, therefore the angle between the two motions is 90 degree.

Therefore, finding their resultant,

[tex]R^2=(29)^2+(20)^2[/tex]

[tex]R^2=(49)^2[/tex]

R = 7

Therefore, total relative motion towards the northwest is 7 mm per year.

What are 4 physical properties for the bear

Answers

Answer:

A bear normally has a short, thick neck, a rounded head, a pointed muzzle, short ears, and small eyes. Some species have round faces. Bears have poor eyesight, and most have only fair hearing.

Explanation:

Modern Bears are characterized with large body and stocky legs, a long snout, shaggy hair, plantigrade paws with five non-retractile claws and a short tail.

Grizzly bears (Ursus arctos horribilis) have concave faces, a distinctive hump on their shoulders, and long claws about two to four inches long. Both the hump and the claws are traits associated with a grizzly bear's exceptional digging ability. Grizzlies are often dark brown, but can vary from blonde to nearly black.

The brown bear has a slight hump above its shoulder, round ears, a long snout and big paws with long, curved claws that it uses for digging. Unlike the black bear, it can't climb trees. It can weigh between 350-1,500 pounds. When standing on its hind legs it can be up to 5 feet tall.

A constant force of 1.25N

Explanation:

This is a kinematics problem.

First find acceleration,

then use F = ma to find force.

Given:

mass = .5kg

delta x = 20m

t = 4s

a = ?

Friction = 0

From the kinematics equations:

delta x = Vi + (1/2)at^2

Plug in terms that are given:

20m = 0 + (1/2)a(4^2)

(2*20m)/(16s^2) = a

40m/(16s^2)= 2.5m/s^2

Now use F = ma to find force exerted on object.

F = (0.5kg)*(2.5m/s^2)

F = 1.25N

m = order = 2

d = 3.88 x 10⁻⁶ m

λ = wavelength of light = 589 nm = 5.89 x 10⁻⁷ m

θ = angle = ?

Therefore, using these values in the equation, we get:

[tex](2)(5.89\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m) = (3.88\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m)Sin\theta \\Sin\theta = \frac{(2)(5.89\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)}{(3.88\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m)}\\\\\theta = Sin^{-1}(0.3036)[/tex]
