Answer:
Centripetal acceleration = 0.79 m/s²
Explanation:
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Radius, r = 2.6 km
Time = 360 seconds
<em><u>Conversion:</u></em>
2.6 km to meters = 2.6 * 1000 = 2600 meters
To find the magnitude of centripetal acceleration;
First of all, we would determine the circular speed of the car using the formula;
Where;
- r represents the radius and t is the time.
Substituting into the formula, we have;
Circular speed, V = 45.38 m/s
Next, we find the centripetal acceleration;
Mathematically, centripetal acceleration is given by the formula;
Where;
- V is the circular speed (velocity) of an object.
- r is the radius of circular path.
Substituting into the formula, we have;
<em>Centripetal acceleration = 0.79 m/s²</em>
