Answer:

push

Step-by-step explanation:

it pushes you back when you lean forward really fast

The difference between mass and weight is that mass is the amount of matter in a material, while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body. ... Weight usually is denoted by W. Weight is mass multiplied by the acceleration of gravity (g).

GRAVITY

THE UNBALANCED FORCE THAT CAUSES OBJECTS TO MOVE IN A CIRCULAR PATH IS CALLED A CENTRIPETAL FORCE. GRAVITY PROVIDES THE CENTRIPETAL FORCE THAT KEEPS OBJECTS IN ORBIT. THE WORD CENTRIPETAL MEANS "TOWARD THE CENTER."
