Simple Pendulum: A 34-kg child on an 18-kg swing set swings back and forth through small angles. If the length of the very light supporting cables for the swing is 4.9 m, how long does it take for each complete back-and-forth swing

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is "4.443 sec".

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of child,

= 34 kg

Mass of swing,

= 18 kg

Length,

= 4.9 m

The time period of pendulum will be:

T = [tex]2 \pi \sqrt{4g}[/tex]

  = [tex]2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{4.9}{9.8} }[/tex]

  = [tex]4.443 \ sec[/tex]  

Answer:

The time taken to back and forth is 4.4 s .

Explanation:

Length, L = 4.9 m

let the time period is T.

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Use the formula of time period

[tex]T = 2 \pi\sqrt{L}{g}\\\\T = 2 \times 3.14\sqrt{4.9}{9.8}\\\\T = 4.4 s[/tex]
