Given:
The speed of the car is: v = 54 m/s
The radius of the curve is: r = 441 m
The mass of the car is: m = 640 kg
The acceleration of the car is: a = 6.61 m/a^2
To find:
The value of acceleration in terms of g (acceleration due to gravity).
Explanation:
The car has an acceleration of 6.61 m/s^2.
The acceleration of 6.61 m/s^2 can be written in terms of g (acceleration due to gravity) as:
[tex]a_g=\frac{a}{9.8\text{ m/s}^2}\times g=\frac{6.61\text{ m/s}^2}{9.8\text{ m/s}^2}\times g=0.675g[/tex]
Final answer:
The acceleration of the car in terms of g (acceleration due to gravity) is 0.675g.
