Answer:increases

Explanation:

If we are going upward in an elevator from the ground floor to the top floor then it indicates that your distance from the center of the earth is increasing while the time period remains the same.

If the radial distance is increased then the tangential velocity of the object must be increased because the time period is the same.

This can be best explained by taking an example of a car moving in a circle of radius r. If radial is increased for the same period then the car has to travel at a higher velocity to make in time.

If a ball starts with the velocity of 2.0m/s and accelerates with a constant rate of 0.50m/s squared for 2.5s what is the balls
baherus [9]

Acceleration can be any change in speed, increasing or decreasing.
You haven't said whether the ball is speeding up or slowing down.

If its acceleration is positive ... speed is increasing ... then in 2.5 seconds,
it GAINS (0.5 m/s² x 2.5 sec) = 2.5 m/s of speed.  Added to its initial
speed of 2.0 m/s, it ends up moving at 4.5 m/s.

If its acceleration is negative ... speed is decreasing ... then in 2.5 seconds,
it LOSES (0.5 m/s² x 2.5 sec) = 2.5 m/s of speed.  Added to its initial
speed of 2.0 m/s, it ends up moving at  -0.5 m/s.  That means that it ends up
moving in the opposite direction compared to its direction at the beginning of
the change.

A horizontal desk surface measures 1.7 m by 1.0 m. If the Earth's magnetic field has magnitude 0.42 mT and is directed 68° below
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The magnetic flux through the desk surface is 6.6\times10^{-4}\ T-m^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field B = 0.42 T

Angle =68°

We need to calculate the magnetic flux

\phi=BA\costheta

Where, B = magnetic field

A = area

Put the value into the formula

\phi=0.42\times10^{-3}\times1.7\times1.0\cos22^{\circ}

\phi=0.42\times10^{-3}\times1.7\times1.0\times0.927

\phi=6.6\times10^{-4}\ T-m^2

Hence, The magnetic flux through the desk surface is 6.6\times10^{-4}\ T-m^2.

Determine the speed of sound on a rainy day with the temperature of 18 degrees celsius..
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Answer:

= 338.2 m/s

Explanation:

vs= 331 + T (0.6m/s)

= 331 + 12 °C (0.6m/s)

= 331 + 7.2m/s

= 338.2 m/s

Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.0 kg gibbon
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

230 N

Explanation:

At the lowest position , the velocity is maximum hence at this point, maximum support force  T  is given by the branch.

The swinging motion of the ape on a vertical circular path , will require

a centripetal force  in upward direction . This is related to weight as follows

T - mg = m v² / R

R is radius of circular path . m is mass of the ape and velocity is 3.2 m/s

T =  mg -  mv² / R

T = 8.5 X 9.8 + 8.5 X 3.2² / .60  { R is length of hand of ape. }

T = 83.3 + 145.06

= 228.36

= 230 N ( approximately )
