A ball of mass 2 kg is attached to a vertical spring. The ball displaces 0.1 m once it is attached. What is the spring constant?

it is given that trillions of microbes make up to 1% to 3% of the body mass.

let's take average of this percentage: 2%

consider the average mass of the human body as 70 kg.

then, trillions of microbes would have mass  

therefore, 100 trillion micro-organisms would weigh:

this is an approximate value and could change depending on the mass of the human body and percentage of the microbes present in it.

average mass per microorganism =

b. false

explanation:

suppose a rock in free fall is dropped off a cliff. after falling for 5 seconds, its speed would not be 100 m/s.
