In which situation would a space probe most likely experience centripetal acceleration?

a. as it revolves around a planet
b. as it flies straight past a moon
c. as it is pulled in a line toward the sun
d. as it lifts off from earth

The answer is A.

I had to take a quiz with that question, the answer was A and I got it correct.

Answer;

A. As it revolves around a planet

Explanation;Centripetal acceleration is a type of acceleration that is experienced when an object or a body is in circular motion as a result of centripetal force. This type of accelerations occurs towards the center of a circular path along the radius of the circular path followed by an object.When a space probe revolves around a planet, centripetal acceleration is involved due to the rate of change of angular velocity that results from centripetal force as the space probe moves through a fixed circular path.
