It's not so much a "contradiction" as an approximation. Newton's law of gravitation is an inverse square law whose range is large. It keeps people on the ground, and it keeps satellites in orbit and that's some thousands of km. The force on someone on the ground - their weight - is probably a lot larger than the centripetal force keeping a satellite in orbit (though I've not actually done a calculation to totally verify this). The distance a falling body - a coin, say - travels is very small, and over such a small distance gravity is assumed/approximated to be constant.
Pretty sure it’s false....................
When a cloud of gas and dust in space was disturbed, maybe by the explosion of a nearby star.This explosion made waves in space which squeezed the cloud of gas & dust.
Answer:
2697.75N/m
Explanation:
Step one
This problem bothers on energy stored in a spring.
Step two
Given data
Compression x= 2cm
To meter = 2/100= 0.02m
Mass m= 0.01kg
Height h= 5.5m
K=?
Let us assume g= 9.81m/s²
Step three
According to the principle of conservation of energy
We know that the the energy stored in a spring is
E= 1/2kx²
1/2kx²= mgh
Making k subject of formula we have
kx²= 2mgh
k= 2mgh/x²
k= (2*0.01*9.81*5.5)/0.02²
k= 1.0791/0.0004
k= 2697.75N/m
Hence the spring constant k is 2697.75N/m
