  1. Question 1

    Q1. A car is moving on a circular track with a radius of 50 m. If its speed is 25 m/s, what is its centripetal 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) = v² / r = (25)² / 50 = 12.5 m/s², using the formula a_c = v² / r.
