What if a planet that is Earth-sized falls down on Earth from let's say 5-10 meters though?

[–] glorkon@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

It would fall at 2g, because two Earth-sized masses attract each other in that case. With smaller objects it's just 1g, because the mass of, let's say, a nice cup of tea is negligible compared to the mass of Earth.
