How is energy transferred during a pendulum swing?
A swinging pendulum has potential energy at each end of it's travel (when it stops momentarily) This energy is converted to kinetic energy as it swings down and back to potential energy as it swings up the other way.
How is it possible for a sound wave to transmit energy but not matter?
Sound wave's transmit energy and not matter because sound travels from particle to particle transferring only energy. That is why when sound travels only the energy travels and the particles just collide with each other but stay in their positions.
Why does the skier accelerate while earth does not seem to move at all?
gravity The force on each other is the same (action and reaction) The skier and the earth accelerate toward each other according to: acceleration = force / mass. But because the earth is so massive , (compared to the skier) its rate of acceleration is immeasurably small, as is the distance it travels. > This is only concerned with the vertical component of the skiers motion.
What angular distance do earth parallels measure?
one degree each.
Discussion and calculations of compound pendulum due to gravity?
DISCUSSION From the experiment, I found that there are several differences in between theoretical values and experimental values that being obtained. These differences should not be so obvious. The values supposed to be not much in difference as the experimental and theoretical values should be almost the same. By my inference, there are several factors that influenced these differences. One of the main factors that often occur in any experiment including this experiment is inconsistency while values are taken. Firstly, the hinge where the pendulum is hang is an 'allen key' and have 6 surfaces which is not smooth. Thus, the pendulum cannot swing smoothly compared if the hinge used is a smooth circular rod. While the pendulum is released, the angle where the pendulum is released is not accurate. The angle of released are not always the same each time, even the angle supposed to be at since the measurement of the angle is only depended on the protactor which is hold next beside the pendulum. Moreover, the angle is observed with our eyes and at different position. Thus, accuracy in this matter is questionable. Other than that, the time taken for the pendulum swing is also questionable as it is observed also with our eyes. The point where the pendulum starts and ends after ten consecutive swings are not really exact as we cannot really measure when the pendulum change it direction to a reversed swing. The time taken when the pendulum completed ten swin9gs is also not accurate. Even this matter seemed to be unreliable, actually it affects our readings a lot when it comes to calculation. Besides that, the area where this experiment is held is close to the laboratory entrance door and wind is also the factor for the pendulum to swing inconsistently as the wind speed changes all the time. There are times when wind blows quite fast and there are times when no wind blows at all. Thus, all of the factors above do influence the readings taken throughout this experiment and that is why the results vary in some way.
How would the distance a car travels each second change if it's slowing down?
If a car is slowing down, the distance it travels each second will decrease. The rate at which the car covers distance will diminish as the car decelerates.
The amplitude of the pendulum?
The amplitude of a pendulum is the distance between its equilibrium point and the farthest point that it reaches during each oscillation.
Will a pendulum time period increase or decrease when taken to the top of the mountain?
The time period of a pendulum will increase when taken to the top of a mountain. This is because the acceleration due to gravity decreases at higher altitudes, resulting in a longer time for the pendulum to complete each oscillation.
Why does the frequency of a pendulum move faster if you shorten the string?
Shortening the string of a pendulum decreases the distance it needs to travel, resulting in a shorter period for each swing. Since frequency is the number of swings per unit of time, shortening the pendulum causes it to move faster.
You should increase or decrease with each additional environmental factor your following distance with 1 second?
Decrease
Why does the length of the period increase as the length of the pendulum increases?
If this is a homework assignment, please consider trying to answer it yourself first, otherwise the value of the reinforcement of the lesson offered by the assignment will be lost on you.The period of a pendulum increases as it length increases because the verticle distance the bob travels is less, and thus there is less potential energy available to accelerate the bob in its arc. Also, recall that in vector mechanics the horizontal force vector due to gravity is a function of the direction the object is constrained to follow, and if the pendulum is longer, that direction is more horizontal, giving the horizontal force vector less of an effect.
What is the distance an object travels each second for objects falling under constant acceleration?
For objects falling under constant acceleration (such as gravity), the distance an object travels each second is determined by the formula d = 0.5 * a * t^2, where "d" is the distance, "a" is the acceleration, and "t" is the time in seconds. This means that the distance traveled each second will increase quadratically as time passes.
What is the term for a measure of the distance a wave travels over time?
The term for a measure of the distance a wave travels over time is wavelength. It is the distance between two consecutive points of a wave that are in phase with each other, such as from crest to crest or trough to trough.
What is loudness and distance?
Loudness is the perceived intensity of sound, measured in decibels (dB). Distance affects loudness by causing sound to decrease in intensity the further it travels, as sound waves disperse in all directions. The inverse square law states that the sound pressure level decreases by 6 dB for each doubling of distance from the sound source.
Can the time period of a pendulum be infinite?
Perhaps if either:The length of the pendulum is infiniteThe pendulum is in perfect zero gravity and has no momentumBut in each of those cases, does it really qualify as a pendulum?
How would the distance the car travels each second change if it were slowing down?
In that case, each second the distance travelled will be less than the second before that.
If a wave vibrates up and down twice each seconds and travels a distance 20 meter each seconds?
it's frequency is 2 hertz
