  • Period increase if a length is doubled?

    For a small displacement, the period of a simple pendulum depends only upon the length of a pendulum and the acceleration of gravity, the formula is:

    T = 2π√(L / G)

    T = Period (in seconds)

    L = Length in feet

    G = 9.8 m/s²

    How much will the period increase when the length is doubled?

  • Accounting question on segment disposal?

    Have a rough time with this question.. Any help/explanation would be great!

    On May 15, 2001, Laker Inc. approved a plan to dispose of a segment of its business.

    ... 5/15/01 to 12/31/01 ....... $50,000

    ... 1/1/02 to 1/31/02 ....... $10,000

    The carrying amount of the segment at the date of sale was expected to be $750,000. Before taxes, what amount should Laker report as a loss on disposal of the segment in its 2001 income statement?

    a. $270,000

    b. $260,000

  • Radio waves ... (choose one of the following)?

    Radio waves ..... (choose one of the following)

    are sound waves.

    travel more slowly than light waves.

    can be generated by quartz crystals.

    cannot be transmitted through most building materials.

    Having trouble with this one. My answer would be Radio waves cannot be transmitted through most building materials because buildings made of metal or metal coated glasses, or steel reinforced concrete, reflect most of the radio energy.

    Is that correct?

  • calculate how much energy that would be needed to raise 1 kg of water?

    Calculate how much energy would be needed to raise 1 kg of water from 273 to 373 Kelvins.

    Not sure if I am doing this right, but my work so far is:

    H = m * c * (change in temperature)

    H = 1 kg * (373 - 273)

    H = 1 kg * (100 Kelvin)

    H = 100

  • Using 2 points on a Cosine Curve to find the slope.?

    Evaluate your expression for slope for, a = pi/4, b = 4pi/3.

    * The graph of the curve is y = cos x

    I can't even think about where to start for this problem.

    Using the slope formula, m = (Delta Y) / (Delta X)

    I came up with:

    sin pi/4 = √2 / 2

    sin 4pi/3 = -√3 / 2

    cos pi/4 = √2 / 2

    cos 4pi/3 = -1 / 2

    m = ((-√3 / 2) - (√2 / 2)) / ((-1 / 2) - (√2 / 2)) = ?

    This is the only approach I can think of but any help would be great! thanks
