What questions should you ask yourself to know if you need to cite something in your presentation?

"Did I write this?"

400

Just 5s after a person jumps out of a plane, they're falling at a speed of 49.05 m/s. What is the acceleration due to gravity on this person?

9.81 m/s^2

500

A person falling out of a plane is pulled towards the ground by gravity; however, Newton's 3rd Law says this person is also pulling the Earth upwards towards them with the same force that Earth is pulling them towards the ground. If the force of gravity on the Earth was 850N, what is the acceleration of the Earth upwards, given that 

earth mass = 5.97 x 10^24  kg

1.424*10^-22 m/s^2
