The acceleration of the bob is directly proportional to the displacement and towards the vertical position.If x represents the angular displacement towards the right, from the vertical. and if x', x'' represent the derivatives, then

x'' = -kx where k > 0.

This is the characteristic differential equation for SHM.

What kind of energy can a simple machine transfer?

Do you mean one that obeys SHM (simple harmonic motion)?It will just basically, as it goes through its oscillation, transfer energy between potential energy and kinetic energy. There are other machines that use SHM, particularly in the field of electromagnetism, but they work on different princiapls, although still obey SHM.


What following sentence contains a verb in simple past tense She obeyed her father She obeys her father She has obeyed her father She had obeyed her father?

The sentence "She obeyed her father" contains a verb in simple past tense.


Which sentence contain a verb in the simple past tense she obeyed her father she has obeyed her father she obeys her father she had obeyed her father?

She obeyed her father.Obeyed is the past of obey and it is 'simple' because there is only one verb in the sentence. The other sentences have two verbs eg had obeyed and obeys is present tense


Which sentence contains a verb in the simple past tense she obeyed her father she has obeyed her father she obeys her father she obeyed her father?

obeyed is simple past.has obeyed is present perfect.obeys is present simple.


How does the mass of pendulum affect its period?

well, you could simply pull it away from its centre of equilibrium (the point where the pendulum is when its stationary), and release it. Then you just count how many seconds it takes to make one complete oscillation. Note, one oscillation isn't the time for the pendulum to swing to the other side, but is the time taken for the pendulum to return to the side it was initially released from.Note: the greater the angle of the swing, the greater the speed with which the pendulum will swing, but in the absence of air resistance, the period should remain the same with the same pendulum, and because air resistance is all around us, when we move through the air, and is proportional to the speed squared, this will begin to effect the result, by slowing down the pendulum. Therefore a pendulum only obeys SHM for smaller displacements from the point of central equilibrium, or another way of putting that is for smaller angles of pendulum displacment.


Does AmH3 obeys the octect rule?

No, Transition metals do not obey the octet rule in simple compounds , Am is an 'f' block transition metal.


What kind of force there is in orbiting planets?

The planet moves forward in its orbit while being pulled sideways by gravity acting between it and the Sun. Isaac Newton showed that each planets obeys the laws of motion and must follow an elliptical orbit that obeys Kepler's laws when the force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of distance.
