A) Expanding. We know this because it has a similar effect with sound. When a car goes by the pitch gets deeper and deeper. It's because you're receiving less waves. Same thing for light but instead of a pitch it's light, and the farther spread the waves - the redder, the closer and more contracted - the bluer

A research team developed a robot named Ellie. Ellie ran 1,000 meters for 200 seconds from the research building, rested for 100

Verizon [17]

Answer:

1. Running velocity (5 m/s)

2. Resting velocity (0 m/s)

3. Walking velocity (-1 m/s)

1. Running speed (5 m/s)

2. Walking speed (1 m/s)

3. Resting speed (0 m/s)

Explanation:

Attached you will find the plot of position vs time of Ellie´s movement.

The velocity is the displacement of the object over time relative to the system of reference. The speed, in change, is the traveled distance over time in disregard of the system of reference.

So, the velocity is calculated as follows:

v = Δx / Δt

where

Δx = final position - initial position

Δt = elapsed time

1) The average velocity of Ellie while running is:

v = 1000 m - 0 m / 200 s = 5 m/s

While resting:

v = 0 m - 0 m / 100 s = 0 m/s

And while walking back:

v = 0 m - 1000 m / 1000 s = - 1 m/s

Note that in this last case, the initial position is 1000 m because Ellie is 1000 m from the origin of the system of reference when she walks back. The final position will be the origin of the system of reference, 0 m.

Comparing with the graphic, the velocity is the slope of the function position(t).

Then:

1. Running velocity (5 m/s)

2. Resting velocity (0 m/s)

3. Walking velocity (-1 m/s)

2) The speed is the distance traveled over time:

Running speed = 1000 m / 200 s = 5m /s

Resting speed = 0 m / 100 s = 0 m/s

Walking speed = 1000 m/ 1000 s = 1 m/s

Then:

1. Running speed (5 m/s)

2. Walking speed (1 m/s)

3. Resting speed (0 m/s)

kumpel [21]

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

A large risk of tailgating is the collision avoidance time being much less than the driver reaction time. Driving instructors advocate that drivers always use the "two-second rule" regardless of speed or the type of road. During adverse weather, downhill slopes, or hazardous conditions such as black ice, it is important to maintain an even greater distance.

lianna [129]

Answer:

<em>A) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed increases. </em>

Explanation:

The complete question is

A merry-go-round spins freely when Diego moves quickly to the center along a radius of the merry-go-round. As he does this, It is true to say that

A) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed increases.

B) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed decreases.

C) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed remains the same.

D) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed increases.

E) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed decreases

In angular momentum conservation, the initial angular momentum of the system is conserved, and is equal to the final angular momentum of the system. The equation of this angular momentum conservation is given as

$I_{1} w_{1} = I_{2} w_{2}$ ....1

where $I_{1}$ and $I_{2}$ are the initial and final moment of inertia respectively.

and $w_{1}$ and $w_{2}$ are the initial and final angular speed respectively.

Also, we know that the moment of inertia of a rotating body is given as

$I = mr^{2}$ ....2

where $m$ is the mass of the rotating body,

and $r$ is the radius of the rotating body from its center.

We can see from equation 2 that decreasing the radius of rotation of the body will decrease the moment of inertia of the body.

From equation 1, we see that in order for the angular momentum to be conserved, the decrease from $I_{1}$ to $I_{2}$ will cause the angular speed of the system to increase from $w_{1}$ to $w_{2}$ .

From this we can clearly see that reducing the radius of rotation will decrease the moment of inertia, and increase the angular speed.
