A 227 g ball is tied to a string. It is pulled to an angle of 9.62° and released to swing as a pendulum. A student with a stopwatch finds that 5 oscillations take 31 s. How long is the string?

9.55m

Explanation:

From T = 2π√L/g 1

Where T is the period

L is the length of the string and g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

Given that,

Mass of ball = 227g

The ball makes 5 oscillations in 31 s.

T = 31/5

T = 6.2s

Solving for L from equation 1

T = 2π√L/g

Square both sides

T^2 = 4π^2×L/g

T^2×g = 4π^2×L

Make L the subject

L = T^2*g/4π^2 2

Now, substitute the values into equation 2

L = 6.2^2 × 9.8/4×3.14^2

L = 38.44*9.8/39.4384

L = 376.712/39.4384

L = 9.55m

Hence, the length of the string is 9.55m

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
