Problema Solution
1. a) The time for a swing to move forward and backwards can be determined by the formula:
T =2π√(L/9.8)
T represents the time it takes the swing to move through one complete cycle forward and backward and L represents the length of the rope supporting the swing.
Determine the length of the rope for a swing that takes 3.4 seconds to move forward and backwards. round to the tenth.
b) What are the restrictions on the variable L?
Answer provided by our tutors
3.4 = 2L / 9.8
L = 1.7 * 9.8 = 1.36
