A race car moving with a constant speed of 60 m/s completes one lap around a circular track in 50 s. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the race car

Respuesta :

The acceleration of the race car moving in a circular track is 1.2 m/s².

Answer:

Explanation:

The measure of the rate of change in velocity with respect to time is denoted as the acceleration of that object. So the acceleration is directly proportional to the velocity and inversely proportional to the time taken for that velocity.

As here the velocity is given as 60 m/s and the time taken is given as 50 s.

So the acceleration = Velocity/Time

Acceleration = 60 / 50 = 1.2 m/s².

Thus, the acceleration of the race car moving in a circular track is 1.2 m/s².
