    Since "tearfully" is used in this sentence to modify the action of the verb "hang-up," it is an adverb.

    Hint - with a few notable exceptions, most words ending in "ly" are adverbs, as they are usually used to modify either verbs (as above) or adjectives.

    Now - why did you post this question in a Business Management forum?
