The spaceship Intergalactica lands on the surface of the uninhabited Pink Planet, which orbits a rather average star in the distant Garbanzo Galaxy. A scouting party sets out to explore. The party's leader-a physicist, naturally-immediately makes a determination of the acceleration due to gravity on the Pink Planet's surface by means of a simple pendulum of length 1.41 m. She sets the pendulum swinging, and her collaborators carefully count 109 complete cycles of oscillation during 218 s. What is the result? acceleration due to gravity: m/s?

A space craft studying the faint rings of Jupiter is struck and crashes into one of Jupiter's moons. The ship is badly damaged and it is not clear which moon the craft smashed into. One of the micro-cameras, hanging from part of the wreckage transmits some data before going dark. The camera is found to be swinging from a thin piece of wire thought to be 6.8 cm in length and the footage indicates that it was swinging with an oscillation frequency of 0.751 Hz. NASA scientists realize that they can use this data to identify the moon upon which the craft has landed by estimating the gravitational constant of the moon. a) What is the period of oscillation? b) Estimate the gravitational acceleration, "g" of this moon.
An astronaut on the surface of the Earth is working on a mock-up of a lunar station is swinging from a thin cable beneath a support beam. Her frequency of oscillation is 0.128 Hz. Later that week she is on the actual lunar station on the Moon, where g=1.6. When attached to the exact same type of cable on the Moon, what is her new oscillation frequency?

The block is at rest as shown. What is the peiod of the oscillation if the block is pulled down by 10 cm, in seconds? Use g = 10 m/s². Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement. 100 g 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90
A 236 g ball is tied to a string. It is pulled to an O angle of 7.8 and released to swing as a pendulum. A student with a stopwatch finds that 13 oscillations take 18 s. You may want to review (Pages 405 - 407). How long is the string? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. L = μÅ Value Ć Units ?
A mass of 16 kilograms is suspended from a spring with spring constant 7 Kg/sec^2. The damping constant is 2 Kg/sec and the spring is subject to an external force F(t)= 3cos(9t) Newtons. The motion of the mass eventually settles down to a periodic oscillation. What is the period (in sec) of this periodic oscillation? 2 9.
An astronaut has landed on an asteroid and conducts an experiment to determine the acceleration of gravity on that asteroid. He uses a simple pendulum that has a period of oscillation of 2.00 s on Earth and finds that on the asteroid the period is 11.3 s. What is the acceleration of gravity on that asteroid?
The spaceship Intergalactica lands on the surface of the uninhabited Pink Planet, which orbits a rather average star in the distant Garbanzo Galaxy. A scouting party sets out to explore. The party's leader–a physicist, naturally–immediately makes a determination of the acceleration due to gravity on the Pink Planet's surface by means of a simple pendulum of length 1.18 m. She sets the pendulum swinging, and her collaborators carefully count 103 complete cycles of oscillation during 217 s. What is the result?
When a pendulum with a period of 2.00000 s in one location (g = 9.80 m/s2) is moved to a new location from one where the period is now 1.99747 s. What is the change in acceleration (in m/s2) due to gravity at its new location?
Astronauts on a distant planet set up a simple pendulum of length 1.20 m. The pendulum executes simple harmonic motion and makes 100 complete oscillations in 280 s. What is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on this planet?
A block of 1.5 kg attached to an ideal massless spring with a spring constant of 12 N/m oscillates on a horizontal, frictionless track. At time t = 0 s, the mass is released from rest at x = 26 cm. (That is, the spring is stretched by 26 cm). (a) What is the frequency of the oscillation? Number Hz (b) Determine the maximum speed of the block. Number m/s
During an experiment, a student tests a spring's oscillation period with different masses. The testing masses are 50g, 100 g, 200 g, and 500 g. Which of the following statements is correct? The 100 g has the highest frequency. The 500 g has the highest frequency. The 50 g has the highest frequency. O The 200 g has the highest frequency.
