  1. Question 1

    Q1. A particle is moving in a circular path with a radius of 3 m and a speed of 6 m/s. What is its centripetal acceleration?

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

    Answer: 12 m/s²

    Explanation: Centripetal acceleration = v² / r = 6² / 3 = 12 m/s², using the formula for centripetal acceleration.
