Well let's see:  Centripetal force = (speed²) / (radius of the circle)

So when there's a centripetal force driving an object in a circular path, the square of the object's speed is directly proportional to the force, and the radius of the circle is inversely proportional to the force.

So this means that . . .

-- if the centripetal force increases, then the object can whiz around a smaller circle at the same speed, and

-- if the centripetal force decreases, then the object will move out to a bigger circle at the same speed.

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Let R1= resistance of 4ohms

R2= resistance of 8ohms

Equivalent resistance R will be

R=R1 + R2

=> 4+8=12ohms

The current through the two resistors will be the same since they are connected in series. Notwithstanding, the voltage will drop to appreciate the change.

Which theory of emotion explains the startle response
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

In the present study, the startle blink reflex is used as a measure of emotion regulation to effective picture stimuli. Based on the aphasic theory of emotion, it is hypothesized that the startle response will be largest in magnitude in the presence of negative emotional stimuli (Varanasi, Spence, & Lang, 1988).
