When we jump from the truck and accelerate towards the earth surface, the earth also accelerates towards us but it's acceleration is very negligible.
To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration of earth due to the gravitational attraction.
<h3>What's the gravitational force between the earth and a person?</h3>
- Gravitational attraction force is GMm/r² between the earth and a person.
- M= mass of the earth
m= mass of the person
r= separation between them.
<h3>What's the acceleration of the earth towards the person when he jumps from a truck?</h3>
- According to Newton's second law, Force = M×acceleration
- Acceleration= Force / M
- Here, Force = GMm/r²,
so acceleration of earth= Gm/r²
- As this acceleration is very small, so we can't notice it.
Thus, we can conclude that the earth also accelerates towards us.

Explanation:
F = MA
200 = 100 * A
A = 200/100
A = 2m/sec^2

Answer: 58.8235 km/h
speed = distance/time
the distance is 10 km
the time is 10 minutes
the unit is not correct, so we first change minute to hour
so 10/60 is 0.166667, rounded to 0.17.
10 km/ 0.17 hours =
