Answer:
B - Earth's path around the Sun
Explanation:
The moment of inertia is the rotational analog of mass, and it is given by
the product of mass and the square of the distance from the axis.
- The moment of inertia changes as the position of the weight is changed, which indicates that; statement is incorrect
Reasons:
The weight on each arm that have adjustable positions can be considered as point masses.
The moment of inertia of a point mass is <em>I</em> = m·r²
Where;
m = The mass of the weight
r = The distance (position) from the center to which the weight is adjusted
Therefore;
The moment of inertia, <em>I </em>∝ r²
Which gives;
Doubling the distance from the center of rotation, increases the moment of inertia by factor of 4.
Therefore, the statement contradicts the relationship between the radius of rotation and moment of inertia.

Given that,
The acceleration of gravity is -9.8 m/s²
Initial velocity, u = 39.2 m/s
Time, t = 2 s
To find,
The final velocity of the shot.
Solution,
Let v is the final velocity of sling shot. Using first equation of motion to find it.
v = u +at
Here, a = -g
v = u-gt
v = (39.2)-(9.8)(2)
v = 19.6 m/s
So, its velocity after 2 seconds is 19.6 m/s.
