The period of a pendulum is the time it takes the pendulum to swing back and forth once. If the only dimensional quantities that
1 answer:
Explanation:
Let T is the period of a pendulum. The SI unit of time is seconds (s).
It depends on the acceleration of gravity, g, and the length of the pendulum, l.
The SI unit of acceleration of gravity, g and the length of the pendulum, l are m/s² and m respectively.
If we divide m and m/s², we left with s². If the square root of s² is taken, we get s only i.e. the SI unit of period of a pendulum.
So,
Hence, this is the required solution.

The charge density of the sheet is 1.384×10⁻⁷C/m².
Charge density is defined as the charge per unit area.
The sheet is a square of length l=17 cm.
Calculate the area A of the sheet .
The charge Q on the sheet is
The charge density σ is given by,
Substitute 4×10⁻⁹C for Q and 0.0289 m² for A.
Thus, the charge density of the sheet is <u>1.384×10⁻⁷C/m².</u>
The first law of thermodynamics says that the variation of internal energy of a system is given by:
where Q is the heat delivered by the system, while W is the work done on the system.
We must be careful with the signs here. The sign convention generally used is:
Q positive = Q absorbed by the system
Q negative = Q delivered by the system
W positive = W done on the system
W negative = W done by the system
So, in our problem, the heat is negative because it is releaed by the system:
Q=-1275 J
while the work is positive because it is performed by the surrounding on the system:
W=+855 J
So, the variation of internal energy of the system is

The total energy (also called mechanical energy) is the sum of the kinetic energy and potential energy:
For this pendulum, we see that at t=0.60 s the total energy is TE=0.918 J while the potential energy is 0.054 J, so the kinetic energy (the missing value in the table) is
