Newton's third law: If an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A. This law represents a certain symmetry in nature: forces always occur in pairs, and one body cannot exert a force on another without experiencing a force itself.

Without Newton's third law of motion, an object sitting on a table would continue sitting there, motionless, just we always see it do, and just as objects used to do before Newton ever developed his laws of motion.

Getting the new law didn't change anything. Just like everything else in Science, the new law was just a new description of how Nature works. But it didn't change anything, because Nature doesn't care whether we understand how it works or not.

Answer:

$a_c=1.44\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

<u>Centripetal Acceleration</u>

It's the acceleration that an object has when traveling on a circular path to take into consideration the constant change of velocity it must have in order to keep going in the circular path.

Being v the tangent speed, and r the radius of curvature of the circle, then the centripetal acceleration is given by

$\displaystyle a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$
