Answer:
m/s²
m/s²


Step-by-step explanation:
Normal or centripetal acceleration measures change in speed direction over time. Its expression is given by:
Formula 1
Where:
: Is the normal or centripetal acceleration of the body ( m/s²)
v: It is the magnitude of the tangential velocity of the body at the given point
.(m/s)
r: It is the radius of curvature. (m)
Newton's second law:
∑F = m*a Formula ( 2)
∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)
m : mass in kilograms (kg)
Data




r= 120 m
Problem development
We replace data in formula (1) to calculate centripetal acceleration:

m/s²

m/s²
We replace data in formula (2) to calculate centripetal force Fc) :
