The strength of the gravitational field is given by:

where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
r is the distance measured from the centre of the planet.
In our problem, we are located at 300 km above the surface. Since the Earth radius is R=6370 km, the distance from the Earth's center is:

And now we can use the previous equation to calculate the field strength at that altitude:

And we can see this value is a bit less than the gravitational strength at the surface, which is

.
The answer would be the sound waves.
For radio broadcasting, in electricity meters, in any generator.
If you are pushing the coin across the table at a constant rate, the friction of the table and the horizontal force of your hand pushing are equal, and the coin itself moves at a constant rate. If you push a coin and let it go, there is no horizontal force keeping the coin going. Friction slows the coin to a stop. In both cases, the gravitational downward pull of Earth is equally but oppositely resisted by the upward push of table on the coin.
