The centripetal acceleration = 2.88 m/s²
Explanations:The speed of the car, v = 12 m/s
The radius of the circular cloverleaf, r = 50 m
The centripetal acceleration (a) is given by the formula:
[tex]a\text{ = }\frac{v^2}{r}[/tex]Substituting v = 12 m/s and r = 50m into the formula above:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a\text{ = }\frac{12^2}{50} \\ a\text{ = }\frac{144}{50} \\ a\text{ = }2.88m/s^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]The centripetal acceleration = 2.88 m/s²
