Respuesta :

Given:

[tex]T=4.5\text{ seconds}[/tex]

Required:

To find the length of the rope swing.

Explanation:

Consider the formula

[tex]T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}}[/tex]

Now

[tex]\begin{gathered} 4.5=2\times3.142\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}} \\ \\ 0.7161=\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}} \\ \\ \frac{L}{9.8}=0.5127 \\ \\ L=0.5127\times9.8 \\ \\ L=5.02m \end{gathered}[/tex]

Final Answer:

The length is 56.0 meters.
