If we use idea of simple pendulum, such that the period or T = square root of the length/g cycles, I believe that 2 pie when when get rid of square root makes 2 pie become 4 pie. Please the math steps in detail where g= 4pie^2/T^2
I need to get the steps right, so I can use 2pie*sqare riit if L/G

- A vibration sensor, used in testing a washing machine, consists of a cube of aluminum 1.50 cm on edge mounted on one end of a strip of spring steel (like a hacksaw blade) that lies in a vertical plane. The strips mass is small compared with that of the cube, but the strips length is large compared with the size of the cube. The other end of the strip is clamped to the frame of the washing machine that is not operating. A horizontal force of 1.43 N applied to the cube is required to hold it 2.75 cm away from its equilibrium position. If it is released, what is its frequency of vibration?arrow_forwardFive hoops are each pivoted at a point on the rim and allowed to swing as physical pendulums.

Consequently, the deuterium molecule (D2) has twice the mass of a hydrogen molecule (H2). If H2 has a vibrational frequency of 1.30 ✕ 1014 Hz, what is the vibrational frequency of D2 (in Hz)? Assume that the "spring constant" is the same for the two molecules. (This is because the force between the two atoms in the molecule depends on the electrons and the electric charges, which are the same for the two molecules, and not on the masses of the nuclei.) ----- Hzarrow_forward
