The instrument would be a barometer.
Answer:
L = 2.8 cm
Explanation:
Period T = 4 / 12 = 1/3 s
T = 2π√(L/g)
L = (T/2π)²g
L = ((1/3)/2π)²9.8 = 0.02758... ≈ 2.8 cm
Answer:
17.6 N
Explanation:
The force exerted by the punter on the football is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the football:
where
is the change in momentum of the football
is the time elapsed
The change in momentum can be written as
where
m = 0.55 kg is the mass of the football
u = 0 is the initial velocity (the ball starts from rest)
v = 8.0 m/s is the final velocity
Combining the two equations and substituting the values, we find the force exerted on the ball:
By studying meteorites which are the most ancient material in space.
