Question

A racecar, moving at a constant speed of $60 m / s$ in a circular track of radius $100 m$ . Then, the centripetal acceleration is given by ___ $m / s^{2}$ .

Open in App

Solution

Centripetal acceleration= $\frac{V^{2}}{r}$
= $\frac{(60)^{2}}{100} = \frac{60 \times 60}{100} = 36 m / s^{2}$
