Examine the slope of the line on the graph created using the data in Data Table 4 of Period, T2 vs L, the slope of the line is a constant containing the acceleration due to gravity, g. Using the slope of your line, determine the experimental value for g. Compare the value you determined for g from the slope of the graph to the expected value of 9.81 m/s2 by calculating the percent error.
From your examination of the graph created using the data in Data Table 4 of Period, T vs √L . What would you determine is the relationship between the period of a pendulum and the length of a pendulum?
In a certain bimetallic strip, the brass strip is 0.100% longer than the steel strip at a temperature of 283°C. At what temperature do the two strips have the same length? Coefficients of linear expansion for steel α = 12.0 × 10−6 K−1 and for brass α = 19.0 × 10−6 K−1 (see Table 13.2).

- Review Conceptual Example 2 before attempting this problem. Two slits are 0.158 mm apart. A mixture of red light (wavelength = 693 nm) and yellow-green light (wavelength = 567 nm) falls on the slits. A flat observation screen is located 2.42 m away. What is the distance on the screen between the third-order red fringe and the third-order yellow-green fringe? m = 3 m = 3 m = 0 m = 3 m = 3 Fringes on observation screenarrow_forwardA film of oil lies on wet pavement. The refractive index of the oil exceeds that of the water.
