A pendulum clock uses a simple pendulum as its timing device. The clock is correct at noon. The next day, when the clock reads noon, the actual time is 11:50 a. m. What is the fractional change in pendulum length that must be made so the clock runs at the correct rate

the length of the pendulum should be 1.4% longer

Explanation:

Given that;

when its noon, the clock reads 11:50 am,

i.e we have 10 minutes delay ⇒ 10min × 60 = 600secs

we know that in simple pendulum

T = 2π√(l/g)  

d means delay and c means correct;

24hrs = 86400 secs

Now

Td/Tc = (86400-600) / 86400  = 0.993 = [2π√(ld/gc)] / [2π√(ld/gc)] = √(ld/lc)

so ld/lc = 0.98616  

lc = 1.014 ld

lc/l.d = -1 + 1.014 = 0.014 × 100 = 1.4% longer

therefore the length of the pendulum should be 1.4% longer

with the invention of the automobile, the woman of the house could drive to the store and get groceries. women were also free to socialize more. during world war ii women were allowed to work in factories to the war effort and could drive to work or ride mass transit buses to their jobs.

answer would be letter choice (a),   a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy   >   stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger   >   kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground   >   kinetic energy   > moving energy

a   ball flying through the air   > kinetic energy   >   moving energy
