  1. Question 1

    Q1. A car is moving on a circular track of radius 50 m with a constant speed of 25 m/s. What is the magnitude of its acceleration?

    • A) 10 m/s²
    • B) 12.5 m/s²
    • C) 15 m/s²
    • D) 20 m/s²

    Answer: 12.5 m/s²

    Explanation: Centripetal acceleration (a_c) is given by v²/r = (25)²/50 = 12.5 m/s².
