Answer: Frequent collisions turned rocks to dust, pushing the dust deeper into space.

Explanation:

Particles accumulate due to force of gravity in the accretion process. With increase in mass, gravity increases which pulls in more mass. This leads to formation of of bigger massive objects. The frequency of collisions between particles increases. Particles collide and stick with each other. This generates large amount of heat.This is how, planets and other celestial bodies are formed. As gravity pulls the nebular disk inward, the disk spins faster. Particles rotate in the same direction as the nebular disk.

Thus, the statement which does not support formation of planets through accretion process is: Frequent collisions turned rocks to dust, pushing the dust deeper into space.

Why does the Polaris appear to remain stationary in the night sky when other stars show an apparent pattern?
yanalaym [24]
Because one pole of the Earth's axis of rotation (the North one) points
almost exactly toward Polaris.

If Polaris had a pimple or a bump somewhere on its edge, you'd see
the bump rotate around the whole edge, like a clock, once a day.  But
the whole star appears to stay in one place, because our axis points to it.

A straight fin is made from copper (k = 388 W/m-K) and is 0.5 cm in diameter and 30 cm long. The temperature at the base of the
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The rate of transfer of heat is 0.119 W

Solution:

As per the question:

Diameter of the fin, D = 0.5 cm = 0.005 m

Length of the fin, l =30 cm = 0.3 m

Base temperature, T_{b} = 75^{\circ}C

Air temperature, T_{infty} = 20^{\circ}

k = 388 W/mK

h = 20\ W/m^{2}K

Now,

Perimeter of the fin, p = \pi D = 0.005\pi \ m

Cross-sectional area of the fin, A = \frac{\pi}{4}D^{2}

A = \frac{\pi}{4}(0.5\times 10^{-2})^{2} = 6.25\times 10^{- 6}\pi \ m^{2}

To calculate the heat transfer rate:

Q_{f} = \sqrt{hkpA}tanh(ml)(T_{b} - T_{infty})

where

m = \sqrt{\frac{hp}{kA}} = \sqrt{\frac{20\times 0.005\pi}{388\times 6.25\times 10^{- 6}\pi}} = 41.237

Now,

Q_{f} = \sqrt{20\times 388\times 0.005\pi\times 6.25\times 10^{- 6}\pi}tanh(41.237\times 0.3)(75 - 20) = 0.119\ W

How does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?
Vesnalui [34]
Gravity lets all objects fall to the ground at the same speed, 9.8 m/s/s. If the force of gravity were stronger, such as 10 m/s/s, the rate of acceleration would be faster.
