The correct answer is:
the distance of the orbiting object to Earth.
In fact, we know that the gravitational force that keeps the object in circular motion around the Earth is equal to the centripetal force, so we can write:
If we re-arrange the equation, we find an expression for the tangential speed of the object:
and we see that it depends on 3 quantities: G, M (the mass of the Earth) and r (the distance of the object from the Earth).
The first three choices: a, b and c can be considered reconstruction except the last one which is letter d. I'm not really certain what reconstruction is, but judging from the patterns of the first three choices, reconstruction could mean that an inference is made after a part of an event has proved that event to be true.
Constant = straight line
“Travels at constant negative acc.”
Which is negative slope
Solution: B. Straight line w/ neg. slope
Answer:
10259.6 m
Explanation:
We are given that
Radius of small wheel,r=0.17 m
Radius of large wheel,r'=0.92 m
Initial velocity,u=0
Time,t=2.7 minutes=162 s
1 min=60 s
Velocity,v=10m/s
Time,t'=13.7 minutes=822 s
Time,t''=4.1 minutes=246 s
Substitute the values
Substitute the values
Total distance traveled by rider=s+s'+s''=809.6+8220+1230=10259.6 m
