Question
• A small space telescope at the end of a tether line of length L moves at linear speed v about a central space station.
a. What will be the linear speed of the telescope if the length of the line is reduced to 0.33 L?
b. If the initial linear speed of the telescope is 1.0 m/s, what is its speed when pulled in to one-third its initial distance from the space station?

- Hello!! I need help with my physics lab homework. I notice that it does not matter if I change the angle, or the mass, or the radius, the object2 always takes less time to get to the bottom of the inclined plan than the other objects; the object1 always is the second fastest object, the object3 is the third fastest object, and the object4 is the slowest object to get to the bottom. my question is why ? Please see images to understand what I mean. Thank you a lot first image is the worksheet with the infos I have use in the lab. ( ps: object1= solid cylinder, object2= solid sphere, object3= thin cylindrical shell, object4= thin spherical shell) second image is the lab that i am working onarrow_forwardA ball is tied to a string and whirled in a horizontal circle at a constant 4 revolutions per second.
