CSS Applied Mathematics QUESTION #4143
Question 1
For uniform circular motion with speed $V$ and radius $R$, what is the normal component of acceleration?
  • $\frac{V}{R}$
  • $\frac{V^2}{R}$✔️
  • $\frac{dV}{dt}$
  • $0$
Correct Answer Explanation
Normal (centripetal) acceleration $a_n = \frac{V^2}{R}$ directed toward the center of curvature.
