Solution Summary
The expert examines the magnitudes of a centripetal of a car. The speed, distance traveled and elapsed time is determined. Complete, neat and step-by-step solutions are provided.
Solution Preview
R = 293 m, Tangential acceleration, A = 0.8 m/s^2.
Angular acceleration = alpha = A/R = 0.8/293 = 2.73 x 10^ -3 ...
