Period of an ideal simple pendulum  =  2π √(L / G)

                                          1.87 = 2π √ (L / 9.81)

Divide each side by  2π :      (1.87 / 2π) = √ (L / 9.81)

Square each side:                (1.87 / 2π)²  =  L / 9.81

Multiply each side by  9.81 :      L = (9.81) (1.87 / 2π)²  = <em> 0.869 meter</em>

                                              Choice 'D' is the closest one.

Answer : The correct option is, (D) 0.87 meters

Solution :

Formula used :

T=2\pi \times \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where,

T = time period of a pendulum = 1.87 seconds

L = length of the pendulum = ?

g = gravity on earth = 9.8m/s^2

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the length of the pendulum.

1.87s=2\times \frac{22}{7}\times \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8m/s^2}}

0.2975=\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8m/s^2}}

Now squaring on both the sides, we get

L=0.868m=0.87m

Therefore, the length of the pendulum is, 0.87 meters.

The diagram shows a heat engine. In which area of the diagram is unusable thermal energy detected?
Marat540 [252]
Nope, I disagree with the former answer. The answer is definitely Z. <u>W area</u> (boxed with red outline) is represented as the hot reservoir while <u>Z area</u> is the cold reservoir (boxed with blue outline). X area is the heat engine itself and Y area is the work produced from thermal energy from hot reservoir. Typically, all heat engines lose some heat to the environment (based from the second law of thermodynamics) that is symbolically illustrated by the lost energy in the cold reservoir. This lost thermal energy is basically the unusable thermal energy. The higher thermal energy lost, the less efficient your heat engine is.

A badminton player shuffles his shoes in resins explain the scientific reason behind this​
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

To avoid slipping while playing badminton or to increase friction between the shoes and the badminton court or to enhance the grip.

Explanation:

As the question is general so I will try answer it generally.

As badminton court is usually slippery and flat with no or very little friction and while playing badminton, players have to move very fast from place to place.

So, in order to effectively move faster to take the difficult shots with accuracy badminton players increase the friction between their shoes and the badminton court by shuffling resin to their shoes. It helps to enhance the grip.

A block with mass m1 = 4.50 kg and a ball with mass m2 = 7.70 kg are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless
Allisa [31]
1.6a =  \frac{g(m_2 + m_3 - \mu km_1)}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3}  \\  \\ 1.6a(m_1 + m_2 + m_3) = g(m_2 + m_3 - \mu km_1) \\  \\ (1.6a + \mu kg)m_1 + (1.6a - g)m_2 = (g - 1.6a)m_3 \\  \\ m_3 =  \frac{1.6a +\mu kg}{g - 1.6a} m_1 - m_2 \\  \\ m_3 = 22.57 kg

The rectangular boat shown below has base dimensions 10.0 cm × 8.0 cm. Each cube has a mass of 40 g, and the liquid in the tank
Paladinen [302]

When boat is sunk into the liquid the net buoyancy on the boat is counterbalanced by weight of the boat

So here weight of the boat = Buoyancy force

let say boat is sunk by distance "h"

now we can say

F_b = \rho * V * g

F_b = 1000*0.10 * 0.08 * h * 9.8

now by above force balance equation we can write

m*g = F_b

0.040 * 9.8 = 1000 * 0.10 * 0.08 * h * 9.8

0.040 = 8h

h = 5 * 10^{-3} m

so boat will sunk by total 5 mm distance
