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.
It takes a noun and a verb to make a complete sentence.
There isn't a single verb in a), b), or c).
"Affords" is the verb (predicate) in d)., the only complete sentence.
The distance between two particles that are <em>in phase</em>
Answer: 96N
Explanation:
To calculate the velocity of the impact On the persons head, we have
h = gt²/2
14 = 9.81t²/2
t² = 28/9.8
t² = 2.86
t = 1.69s
V = u + at
V = 0 + 9.81*1.69
V = 16.58m/s
a(average) = (v1² + v2²) /2Δy
a(average) = 16.58² + 0)/2 * 0.005
a(average) = 274.8964/0.01
a(average) = 27489.64m/s²
Using newton's second law of motion,
F(average) = m * a(average)
F(average) = 0.0035 * 27489.64
F(average) = 96.21N
Therefore the force needed by the acorn to do much damage starts from 96N
A nuclear power plant doesn't produce any of those things. It only produces electricity and heat. As long as there are no accidents, and the worn out nuclear fuel is handled properly, the nuclear plant isn't harmful to the environment at all.
