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.
Answer:
0.5
Explanation:
I think it is this beacause if u have the answer you have that
Answer: two way gravity is affected if somethings weight is doubled or grtavity gets weaker with distance
Explanation:
Answer:
376 miles
Explanation:
speed = distance / time
therefore distance = speed * time
distance = 40 miles/hr * 9.4 hr
then
distance = 375 miles
