Question
  1. Choose all that apply to centripetal acceleration

      A.

    depends on tangential speed and radius of the circle.

      B.

    Large radius or wider curve of the circle, less centripetal acceleration.

      C.

    More tangential speed, less centripetal acceleration.

      D.

    Direction of centripetal acceleration is always towards the center of the circle or curved path.

      E.

    objects moving around a circle or curved path have centripetal acceleration.

      F.

    More tangential speed , more centripetal acceleration

Expert Solution
Centripetal acceleration

Centripetal acceleration is the property of the motion of a body traversing a circular path. The acceleration is directed radially toward the center of the circle and has a magnitude equal to the square of the body's speed along the curve divided by the distance from the center of the circle to the moving body.
