Answer:

A little difficult to read but:

line A: the acceleration of the satellite is towards the center of the earth or the gravitational attraction

line B: if the satellite were suddenly set free it would just continue moving in a straight line out into in space

line C. apparently an object in free fall towards the center of the earth

F = M a if a force acts on an object it will accelerate in the direction of the force

The only force (omitting air resistance) acting on the object is gravity

Newton's Law (second) was answered in the first question

F = Mass * acceleration = M a
