Asock stuck to the inside of the clothes dryer spins around the drum once every 2.0 s at a distance of 0.50 m from the center of the drum. a) what is the sock's linear speed? b) if the drum were twice as wide but continued to turn with the same frequency, would the linear speed of a sock stuck to the inside be faster than, slower than, or the same speed as your answer to part a?

a) 1.57 m/s

The sock spins once every 2.0 seconds, so its period is

T = 2.0 s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the sock is

The linear speed of the sock is given by

where

is the angular velocity

r = 0.50 m is the radius of the circular path of the sock

Substituting, we find:

B) Faster

In this case, the drum is twice as wide, so the new radius of the circular path of the sock is twice the previous one:

At the same time, the drum spins at the same frequency as before, therefore the angular frequency as not changed:

Therefore, the new linear speed would be:

And substituting,

So, we see that the linear speed has doubled.

the working equation for the angular size is the product of the physical size and 360 degrees divided by the product of two pi and distance from earth. the minimum size would be 0.559 degrees while the maximum size would be 0.49 degrees. 

there is no correct list among the choices you've provided.

the list might look something like this:

-- baby human

-- piccolo

-- flute

-- soprano singer

-- trumpet

-- tenor singer

-- trombone

-- baritone singer

-- baritone horn

-- bass singer

-- tuba

since i had to make up the list myself, i made it easy on myself, and i didn't try to shuffle the string instruments and woodwinds into it too.
