Centripetal acceleration is the force acting on the body who's moving in a circular motion. It is still a force, which according to Newton's Second Law of Motion,
F = ma
F = (70 kg)(2)(9.81 m/s²)
F = 1373.4 N
<em>Thus, the answer is B.</em>
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.

Mass
The mass of an object attract other objects with mass but, and objet has to have more mass that another object to physically move it
Example
The sun and the earth the sun has a large enough mass to not only make our planet rotate around him but seven more
The second Newton's law of motion states that the rate of change in momentum of a moving body is proportional to the resultant force.
Therefore, to understand this law one must understand the concept of momentum and that a body in motion experiences force.
As far as momentum is concerned it is important to note that as a body moves the momentum changes with change in time and also that a body at rest has 0 momentum because its speed/velocity is zero.
It is this change in momentum with time that is proportional to the resultant force experienced by the body.
