Consider the following statements a. The centripetal acceleration might better be expressed as-T(t) because it is a vector b. The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration is vadial/R acceleration iS U acceleration iS U tangential d. A particle that is going along a path with local radius of curvature R at speed s experiences a centripetal acceleration-s/R. e. If you are in a car turning left, the force you feel pushing you to the right is the force that causes the centripetal acceleration. In these statements Uradial refers to the component of the velocity of an object in the direction toward or away from the origin of the coordinate system or the rotation axis. Conversely, Vtangential refers to the component of the velocity perpendicular to Vradial Identify the statement or statements that are false 1.a only2. b only 3.c only 4.d only 5.e only 6.b and e 7.c and e 8.d and e

Answer:

8. d and e

Step-by-step explanation:

Centripetal acceleration a= V^2/R where v is the speed of tangential to the Radius of curvature R and centripetal force is the force toward the center of the circle.
