Explanation:

Galileo is known for being the first person make a telescope, there fore being the first person to see that the sun is in the center of the solar system. he also came up with the theory that if something is pushed, it would keep moving until stopped by another force. For example, say you drop your pencil, it keeps falling until it hits the ground. That is exactly what Galileo did in his Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment and found that theory to be true.

Answer

given,

Tension of string is F

velocity is increased and the radius is not changed.

the string makes two complete revolutions every second

consider the centrifugal force acting on the stone

= $\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

now centrifugal force is balanced by tension

T = $\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

From the above expression we can clearly see that tension is directly proportional to velocity and inversely proportional to radius.

When radius is not changing velocity is increasing means tension will also increase in the string.

Choose the sentence that might be found in a personal narrative that correctly uses both a gerund and an infinitive.

Mumz [18]

Let's start with an infinitive: it has a form "to..." - only sentences C and D have a phrase like this, so we can exclude other options.

Among those, C does not have a gerund, which is a verbal form: "dreaming" has a function of a noun there.

So the correct answer is the remaining one, D.
