  1. Question 1

    Q1. A body is moving in a circular path with a radius of 2 m and a speed of 4 m/s. What is its centripetal acceleration?

    • A) 6 m/s²
    • B) 8 m/s²
    • C) 10 m/s²
    • D) 12 m/s²

    Answer: 8 m/s²

    Explanation: Centripetal acceleration (a) = v² / r = (4)² / 2 = 8 m/s², using the formula a = v² / r.
