(사이가)떨어지다 means "away, apart"
ex)
나무는 2미터씩 떨어져 있다
The trees are two meters apart.
지하철역은 우리 집에서 300미터쯤 떨어져 있다
The subway station is about three hundred meters from my place
떨어지다 has many meanings.
One meaning is same to 남다. So interchangeable only in that meaning.
ex)
이 물건을 팔면 5%의 이윤이 떨어진다
Selling this product leaves a profit of five percent.
천 원 이하로 팔면 떨어지는 것이 없다
It wouldn't pay to sell it for less than a thousand won.
I selected 3 units this semester
이번 학기에 3 과목을 선택했어요.
넓은 강 is same to 폭 넓은 강.
동전 and 주화 both mean coin
돈이 떨어지다 and 돈이 마르다 are same. It means "run out of money"
But 돈이 없어지다 means "money disappear/vanish"
