  1. Question 1

    Q1. A particle 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) 4 m/s²
    • B) 8 m/s²
    • C) 12 m/s²
    • D) 16 m/s²

    Answer: 8 m/s²

    Explanation: Using the formula v² / r, we get (4)² / 2 = 16 / 2 = 8 m/s².
