The equation that governs the period of a pendulum’s swinging. T=2π√L/g Where T is the period, L is the length of the pendulum and g is a constant, equal to 9.8 m/s2. The symbol g is a measure of the strength of Earth’s gravity, and has a different value on other planets and moons.

On our Moon, the strength of earth’s gravity is only 1/6th of the normal value. If a pendulum on Earth has a period of 4.9 seconds, what is the period of that same pendulum on the moon?

Which statements describe the movement of ocean currents around the globe? check all that apply. strong winds force warm water to sink to the ocean floor. the coriolis effect causes warm and cold water to mix. cool dense water sinks to the ocean floor. warm water replaces cool surface water. wind blowing parallel to the shore causes upwelling of cool water.

Aparticle's position is given by x = 3.00 - 9.00t + 3t2, in which x is in meters and t is in seconds. (a) what is its velocity at t = 1 s? (b) is it moving in the positive or negative direction of x just then? (c) what is its speed just then? (d) is the speed increasing or decreasing just then? (try answering the next two questions without further calculation.) (e) is there ever an instant when the velocity is zero? if so, give the time t; if not, answer "0". (f) is there a time after t = 3 s when the particle is moving in the negative direction of x? if so, give the time t; if not, answer "0".
