It is not possible for a human to swing sword fast enough to create a vacuum. This was a popular theme in many of the Samurai anime. The vacuum create by superhuman speed often lead to devastating attacks in these shows.

Can perpetual motion be achieved using a pendulum in a vacuum?

Yes. In a vacuum, the only resistance is the friction in the suspension for the bob of the pendulum. Other than that, it should swing a long time. In air, friction with air will add to the friction in the suspension and it won't swing as well as it would in a vacuum. But it will swing for a while. A pendulum will swing in water, but the hydrodynamic drag will make it stop in a really, really short period of time. Just a couple of swings will strip the pendulum of almost all its energy. And the speed of the pendulum will be slower than in air, and it won't swing anywhere nearly as far through the bottom of its arc as it did in air.


How does a force change the motion of a carnival swing ride?

Force of tension, exerted from the swing rope, keeps the swing moving in the horizontal back and forth motion. The force of gravity keeps the swing from staying at the far right or far left because it always wants the swing to be pulled to Earth, but the force of tension wants to keep it up. Air resistance, like friction, eventually slows the swing down to a halt.


Where is the potential and kinetic energy in a pendulum?

The maximum potential energy is at the top of each swing and is at its minimum at the bottom of the swing when it is perpendicular to a horizontal surface. The maximum kinetic energy is at the bottom of the swing, and is at its minimum at the top of each swing. Please refer to the related link below for an illustration.


Why is it possible to swing around the leg in circles at the hip joint but not at the knee joint?

The hip joint is a ball and socket joint so it possible to move the leg around in a 360 degree circle. The knee joint is a pivotal hinge joint so it can only move backwards and forwards with slight rotation.


Will a pendulum swing faster at the equator than at the poles?

Well, I think it will swing faster in the equator than at the poles because T=sq. root l/q says that when the gravity increases, the time decreases and when the gravity decreases time increases. Thus it will swing slower at the poles than in the equator

How do you create a e-passport website using java swing?

You really don't want to do that. Swing is for desktop applications. If you want to create a website, use Java Server Faces or Applets, not Swing.


How can you make a pendulum swing without stopping Is it possible?

Every time the pendulum swings back and forth, some energy is lost to friction. Friction with air, and friction in the supporting string or whatever. If you manage to reduce this friction (for example, reduce air friction by making the pendulum swing in a vacuum), it will swing longer. However, you won't be able to reduce energy losses completely; it may swing longer, but not forever.


How do you replace a serpentine belt on a 97 ford explorer?

find the tensioner, get the correct wrench to rotate the tensioner. swing it aside enough to get the old belt off , carefully route the new belt making sure it is sitting on all the pulleys correctly, swing the tensioner aside to create enough slack to put the belt in place.

Is it possible to go over top of the swings at a playground?

Yes. The children in my family and my neighborhood did, although it tipped the swing set over or leaned the swing set onto two legs, but yes it was possible with the swing sets we had in the 1950's and 1960's. The swing sets in playgrounds today are usually secured to the ground in concrete, but I've seen children go over the top, standing up in the swing seat.
