A car going around a curve with a radius of 15m experiences a centripetal acceleration of 2.5 m/s2. How fast is the car going?

0.17m/a

38 m/s

6.1 m/s

6.0 m/s

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for centripetal acceleration is

[tex]a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}[/tex] . Filling in:

[tex]2.5=\frac{v^2}{15}[/tex] and

[tex]v=\sqrt{2.5(15)}[/tex] so

v = 6.1 m/s
