I ask this question because I realized that films and movies portray darkness as a slow moving matter that eventually takes the light away. In contrast, films and movies show light instantly appearing as a ray of beam.

I have this problem for a calculus assignment and i can't get my head around it since it looks like a physics problem.

Newtons Law of gravitation says that the magnitude F of the force exerted by a body of mass m on a body of mass M is given by

F= G*m*M / r^2

where G is the gravitational constant and r the distance between the bodies. A cosmonaut inside a spaceship is approaching a newly discovered Planet Htrea. Looking at his instruments, he notices a distance of 2000 km from the planet, its gravitational pull is increasing at 1 N/Km as he approaches the planet. Compute the gravitational force that the planet will exert on the spaceship at a distance of 10000 KM from it.

I cam across this on the inernet:
Corsicana - Emhouse - Emhouse School - This is an old school house that was closed in the early 1950's. It is a small two story building located in Emhouse, outside of Corsicana. Witnesses have seen lights on in the inside (the building has no electricity) go off. They have seen apparitions. All the desks, chalkboards, chalk, and pencils where left in the school from when it closed. Even the shower curtains from the showers where still there.

Now I live in Corsicana on weekdays because I attend the college there and I have drove past this school, its completely boarded up and I was wondering if anyone knew anything about it like why was it closed?? Why do people say its haunted and dont want to talk about it?? Serious answers only please.
