Question

Part A If an object travels at a constant speed in a circular path, the acceleration of the object is If an object travels at a constant speed in a circular path, the acceleration of the object is smaller in magnitude the smaller the radius of the circle. zero. in the opposite direction of the velocity of the object. larger in magnitude the smaller the radius of the circle. in the same direction as the velocity of the object.
The answer is the 4th one but can you tell me how?

Explanation / Answer

formula for centripetal accelaration is a =v^2/r....



here v is speed and r is radius of circle.......


a is inversely proportional tio r ....hence ai s larger in magnitude the smaller is radius of circle
