    		I am not a mathematician and I have enough sense not to pretend that I am. This site seems to answer your question ogicu but I certainly didn't understand it.

    		Explain what your question means by "surface volume".

    		I don't know how to explain it any further, except by saying a hypersphere is a 4-dimensional sphere.

    		Okay, fine, it's (r^2(pi)^4)/2

    		Whoops, first of all, I meant r^4 and pi^2, and second of all, that was the hypervolume.

    Real answer=2r^3(pi)^2

    When calculating the gravitational force between two objects, this force changes as a function of the radius as the other variables remain constant. However, when attempting to calculate the time it takes for an object to reach another when the net force is gravity, a problem arises in trying to calculate the net force, as the radius is always changing; this in turn causes the acceleration to change. Is there any way to calculate the time an object takes to reach another with given masses and a given initial velocity and radius?

    Galileo did not believe in the existence of atmosperic pressure. To support his view he would give the following reasoning. Imagine a container with liquid. Within the liquid consider a certain volume. The liquid inside this volume is acted upon by two oppositely directed forces: weight and buoyant force. According to Archimedes' Principle the two forces are equal. This is why the liquid is in {equilibrium;} it neither sinks nor floats upward. We might say, for example, that water immersed in water is weightless. How then can something weightless exert pressure on the underlying layers! Similarly air in air, being weightless, cannot exert pressure on the lower layers, and ultimately the surface of the earth. What is the flaw in his reasoning?
