The centripetal acceleration is obtained from the quotient of the square of velocity and the radius. Hence, a= [tex] \frac{ v^{2} }{r} [/tex]. Substituting the give, v=125 mi/h and r=0.320 mi, the answer is equal to 48,828.125 mi/[tex] hr^{2} [/tex].
Answer;
= 48,828.125 mi/hr²
Explanation and solution;
- Centripetal acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity. Centripetal acceleration occurs towards the center of the circular path along the radius of the circular path.
- Centripetal acceleration is given by; V²/r ;
V = 125 mi/h and r = 0.320 miles
- Thus; centripetal acceleration = 125²/0.320
=15625/0.320
= 48,828.125 mi/hr²
