A car drives around a curve with a radius of 42 m at a velocity of 24 m/s. what is the centripetal acceleration of the car? m/s2

Sagot :

Answer:

13.7 m/s^2

Explanation:

Radius, r= 42m

Velocity, v= 24m/s

Ac= V^2/r

Ac=(24)^2/42

Ac= 13.7m/s2

The centripetal acceleration is 13.7 m/s².

Calculation:

Centripetal acceleration is given by,

Ac = v²/r

where,

Ac = centripetal acceleration

v = velocity

r = radius

Given,

v = 24 m/s

r = 42 m

To find,

Ac =?

Put the value in the formula,

Ac = v²/r

    = (24)²/42

    = 576/42

    = 13.7 m/s²

Hence, the centripetal acceleration is 13.7 m/s².
