  1. Question 1

    Q1. A particle is moving in a circular path with a constant speed of 8 m/s. If the radius is 2 m, find its centripetal acceleration.

    • A) 24 m/s²
    • B) 32 m/s²
    • C) 40 m/s²
    • D) 48 m/s²

    Answer: 32 m/s²

    Explanation: Centripetal acceleration is given by a = v² / r = (8)² / 2 = 32 m/s².
