api/assessment/rund p-acolate NieLabs-_- ama x L How to Change the Intern - QUESTION 19 OF 19 SHOW LAB WORK If gravity always exerts a force (mg) on your body, why are you not sucked to the center of the Earth? A Gravity does not apply to small bodies, anly large ones B. There is a force acting on you due to the surface beneath you that is equal and opposite to the force of gravity, resulting in a net force of zero C. Newton's Laws are a crude approximation and therefore you cannot use them to understand the physics of this situation D. Because gravity is mutually attractive, your body pulls the Earth the same amount as the Earth puts you,resutting in zero net force and no acceleration

Explanation / Answer

here,

gravity always exert a force on our body

but there is normal reaction force that acts on us that is equal to gravity and cancels out the gravitational force

so,

there is a force acting on you due to the surface beneath you that is equal and opposite to the force of gravity ,

resulting the net force to be zero

so the correct option is B)
