  1. Question 1

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

    • A) 10 m/s²
    • B) 12 m/s²
    • C) 15 m/s²
    • D) 20 m/s²

    Answer: 12 m/s²

    Explanation: Centripetal acceleration (a_c) is given by v²/r = (6)²/3 = 12 m/s².
