ANSWER:

The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration in both cases is the same

Explanation:

We have that the centripetal acceleration is equal to:


a=speed^(2)/radio

Therefore, it is not dependent on mass and therefore the centripetal acceleration will be the same in both cases, that is, with additional passengers or without additional passengers.
