  2. A ball is whirled in a horizontal circle of radius r and speed v. The radius is increased to 2r keeping the speed of the ball constant. The period of the ball changes by a factor of • one half. • one. • two. • three. • four.

  3. A ball is whirled in a horizontal circle of radius r and speed v. The radius is increased to 2r keeping the speed of the ball constant. The period of the ball changes by a factor of • one half. • one. • two. • three. • four.

  4. The figure shows the position of a ball as it is being whirled in a vertical circle. At point (a), the direction of the centripetal acceleration is

  12. Which of the following statements is one of Kepler's three laws of planetary motion? • A line joining any planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal times. • Only an odd number of planets can orbit the sun. • The period of any planet about the sun is proportional to the planet's distance from the sun. • All planets move in elliptical orbits with the earth at one focus. • F = GMm/R2
