A body of mass 10 kg, is moving with a velocity of 5 m/s in a circle of radius 5 m, what is the centripetal acceleration of the body? |
25 m/s2 5 m/s2 0.5 m/s2 50 m/s2 |
5 m/s2 |
The formula for centripetal force is mv2/r. Hence the centripetal acceleration is given by v2/r. Here, v = 5, r= 5. Hence, on solving we will get the centripetal acceleration as 5m/s2. |
