Expert Solution
Step 1

Given Data:

  • The speed of car A is VA = 90 ft/s.
  • The speed of car B is VB = 105 ft/s.
  • The tangential acceleration of car A is atA= 15 ft/s2.
  • The tangential acceleration of car B is atB = 25 ft/s2
  • The radius of car A is rA =300 ft.
  • The radius of car B is rB = 250 ft.

The centripetal acceleration of both the cars can be determined as,

acA=VA2rA=90 ft/s2300 ft=27 ft/s2(ac)B=VB2rB=105 ft/s2250 ft=441 ft/s2.
