The reasoning is wrong if we look into Newton's Law of gravitation.

Newton's law of gravitation states  that every particle in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.

The law is written as follows;

F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

r = \sqrt{\frac{Gm_1m_2}{F} }

The distance between the two particles, is a function of force and their masses not necessarily time of motion.

In the given problem only time of motion was considered which is wrong.

Thus, the reasoning is wrong if we look into Newton's Law of gravitation.

A 1640 kg merry-go-round with a radius of 7.50 m accelerates from rest to a rate of 1.00 revolution per 8.00 s. Estimate the mer
son4ous [18]

Solution :

Given data :

Mass of the merry-go-round, m= 1640 kg

Radius of the merry-go-round, r = 7.50 m

Angular speed, $\omega = \frac{1}{8}$  rev/sec

                             $=\frac{2 \pi \times 7.5}{8}$  rad/sec

                              = 5.89 rad/sec

Therefore, force required,

$F=m.\omega^2.r$

   $$=1640 \times (5.89)^2 \times 7.5  

   = 427126.9 N

Thus, the net work done for the acceleration is given by :

W = F x r

   = 427126.9 x 7.5

   = 3,203,451.75 J

 State how a ray of light can travel from air into glass without bending?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

If you shine a beam of light (a bundle of parallel rays) through the air, it will travel in a straight line. Rays of light usually travel in straight lines until they hit something. If a ray of light hits the surface of a sheet of glass, some light will be reflected by the surface of the glass.

A glass tube 1 mm in diameter is dipped into glycerin. The density of the glycerin is 1260 kg/m3, surface tension is 6.3x10-2 N/
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The capillary rise of the glycerin is most nearly  y  =  0.0204 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The diameter of the glass tube is  d =  1 \ mm =  0.001 \ m

   The density of glycerin is  \rho =  1260 \ kg /m^3

   The surface tension of the glycerin is \sigma   =  6.3 *10^{-2} \ N /m

The capillary rise of the glycerin is mathematically represented as

       y  =  \frac{4 * \sigma  *  cos (\theta )}{ \rho * g *  d}

substituting value  

       y  =  \frac{4 * 6.3 *10^{-2}  *  cos (0 )}{ 1260 * 9.8 *  0.001}

      y  =  0.0204 \ m

Therefore the height  of the glass tube  the glycerin was able to cover is

y  =  0.0204 \ m
