Answer:
Centripetal acceleration = 83.77m/s²
Explanation:
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Radius, r = 0.13m
Velocity, v = 3.3m/s
To find centripetal acceleration;
Centripetal acceleration is given by the formula;
Substituting into the equation, we have;
<em>Centripetal acceleration = 83.77m/s²</em>
<em>Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the edge of the disc is 83.77 m/s². </em>
Pretty sure it is clockwise if I am not mistaken
They do the method 3 times to be sure. Because if you do it once, that could mean anything. If you do it twice, it may or may not have the same result. If you do it 3 times and it matches one of the previous answers, then it's likely that it's correct.
