Answer:
speed will double
Explanation:
Tangential velocity is given by
v=wr
where r is radius and w is rotational velocity. When r is increased to 2R, keeping roational velocity constant, the tangential velocity doubles. Hence unwinding will take place at a twice the rate and the final velocity will be double
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
B. 16.2 m/s
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
Using the equation;
v = u + at; where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken;
u = 21 m/s, a= -2.4 m/s^2 and t = 2 seconds
Therefore;
v = 21 + ((-2.4) × 2)
= 21 - 4.8
<u> = 16.2 m/s</u>
The answer is B. I hope this helps! :)
