you want to measure the gravitational acceleration at your location. since g does not vary significantly over the surface of the earth you will have take very precise measurements you make a simple pendulum by typing a 55 g hex nut to a string of length 1.500 m. you pull the mass to the side and release it to let it oscillate observing that it takes 2.454 s for the mass to return to its original position what is the value of g for your location? a) 9.83 m/s^2 b) 9.82 c) 9.81 d) 9.80

    On your first trip to Planet X you happen to take along a 170 g mass, a 40-cm-long spring, a meter stick, and a stopwatch. You're curious about the free-fall acceleration on Planet X, where ordinary tasks seem easier than on earth, but you can't find this information in your Visitor's Guide. One night you suspend the spring from the ceiling in your room and hang the mass from it. You find that the mass stretches the spring by 21.7...

    Please explain how you approach this so I can emulate your problem solving strategies on like problems Suppose we had a large, positively charged plate in an upright (vertical) position and a point charge with positive charge +Q. In lecture, you saw that a large charged plate gives rise to an electric field which is constant in space: we will call this electric field Eplate. Let us suppose also that we had a s bl with positive charge +q and...

    3. Suppose you have a rock with a mass of 305 g. When attached to a spring scale and lowered completely into water the spring scale reads Fe 2.10 N. Note that this reading is significantly lower than the rock's weight Fo Mg (3 N), because of the buoyant force helping to support it. From this information, calculate the following: (a) Fe: the magnitude of the buoyant force exerted on the rock. Use N2L in conjunction with the FBD shown...
