Solution

The correct option is C $υ^{2} / r$
Centripetal acceleration, property of the motion of a body traversing a circular path. The acceleration is directed radially toward the centre of the circle and has a magnitude equal to the square of the body's speed along the curve divided by the distance from the centre of the circle to the moving body.
