some time later, kid a was spinning with the same speed that kid c had originally. what would kid a's centripetal acceleration be if his distance from the center of the merry-go-round was r



Answer :

Centripetal refers to “center-seeking” Quantifies the change in directionof the velocity The acceleration is directed toward the center of the circle of motion.

The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration is given by V^2/r, the direction is toward the center of the circle. The tangential component of the acceleration is due to changing speed. The centripetal component of the acceleration is due to changing direction.

When an object is rotating at a constant angular velocity, the whole object has a constant angular velocity. Therefore, every mint on the turntable has the same, constant angular velocity.

The acceleration which causes the tangential velocity to change direction is called Centripetal acceleration. Centripetal acceleration is always in toward the center of the circle.
