A visitor to a lighthouse wishes to determine the height of the tower. She ties a spool of thread to a small rock to make a simple pendulum, which she hangs down the center of a spiral staircase of the tower. The period of oscillation is 6.01 s. What is the height of the tower

The height of the tower is 8.96 m.

Explanation:

We have, a visitor to a lighthouse wishes to determine the height of the tower. She ties a spool of thread to a small rock to make a simple pendulum, which she hangs down the center of a spiral staircase of the tower. The period of oscillation is 6.01 s.

It is required to find the height of the tower. Let it is l. The time period of a simple pendulum is given by :

l is length of pendulum, or height of tower

So, the height of the tower is 8.96 m.

answer: 2×10^-2kg

explanation: density= mass per volume

vol=mass/density

converting to s.i units we have;

3÷1000kg = 0.003

1.5÷100m = 0.15

0.003/0.15 = 0.02kg
