Answer:

B. 25 m/s/s

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is the square of the tangential velocity divided by the radius of curvature.

a = v² / r

Given v = 10 m/s and r = 4 m:

a = (10 m/s)² / 4 m

a = 25 m/s²

Isothermal Work = PVln(v₂/v₁)

PV = nRT = 2 mole * 8.314 J/ (k.mol) * 330 k = 5487.24 J

Isothermal Work = PVln(v₂/v₁) v₂ = ? v₁ = 19L,

1.7 kJ = (5487.24)In(v₂/19)

1700 = (5487.24)In(v₂/19)

In(v₂/19) = (1700/5487.24) = 0.3098

In(v₂/19) = 0.3098

(v₂/19) = $e^{0.3098}$

v₂ = 19* $e^{0.3098}$

v₂ = 25.8999

v₂ ≈ 26 L Option b.
