Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. A race car accelerates uniformly from a speed of 40.5 m/s to a speed of 65.0 m/s in 5.00 s while traveling clockwise around a circular track of radius 3.80  102 m. When the car reaches a speed of 50.0 m/s, find the following. (a) the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration  m/s2 (b) the angular speed  rad/s (c) the magnitude of the tangential acceleration  m/s2 (d) the magnitude of the total acceleration
