Answer:
Exercise 1;
The centripetal acceleration is approximately 94.52 m/s²
Explanation:
1) The given parameters are;
The diameter of the circle = 8 cm = 0.08 m
The radius of the circle = Diameter/2 = 0.08/2 = 0.04 m
The speed of motion = 7 km/h = 1.944444 m/s
The centripetal acceleration = v²/r = 1.944444²/0.04 ≈ 94.52 m/s²
The centripetal acceleration ≈ 94.52 m/s²
This happens in basketball. It is known as "jump ball".
