Question

Is g constant anywhere? (omit uncertainty, we’re only making a point)

If we define ‘near’ as where humans are, then we’re interested in the range from sea level to 400 km (ISS orbit). Prepare a scatter plot in Excel. In one column fill with values from 6.40e6m, sea level, to 6.80e6m, ISS orbit, in increments of 5.0e4m and in the next column, fill with a calculation for g. (5.0e4 is how you write scientific notation in most software. Many students will try to write 5.0*104, but this is a calculation of 2 numbers, and will be graded as an error. 5.0e4 is one number that you can operate on without concerns about order of operation)

Hi, i'm really confused on how i'm supposed to plot this on Excel,

Thank you in advanced
