  1. Question 1

    Q1. A body is moving in a circular path. If its speed is 15 m/s and radius is 3 m, what is its centripetal acceleration?

    • A) 50 m/s²
    • B) 75 m/s²
    • C) 100 m/s²
    • D) 125 m/s²

    Answer: 75 m/s²

    Explanation: Centripetal acceleration (a_c) = v² / r = (15)² / 3 = 75 m/s², using the formula a_c = v² / r.
