Question

ANSWER C IS INCORRECT!!!! Please SHOW ALL WORK!! EXPLAIN!

The speedometer on your car reads a steady 35 mph. Could you be accelerating? Explain. Choose the correct answer and explanation. A. Yes, If the car is moving along a curved path (k notequalto 0), then a_N = k |v|^2 notequalto 0 and a = a_T T + a_N N notequalto 0. B. No, If the car is moving along a curved path (k = 0), then a_N = k|v|^2 = 0 and a = a_T T + a_N N = 0. C. No, The car is not accelerating if the speed is constant. D. Yes, On a curved path, the velocity always changes in magnitude, but it may or may not change in direction, which means that the acceleration of an object moving on a curved path can never be zero.

Explanation / Answer

Since the speed is showing steady at 35 mph.

Yes ,if the car is moving on the the curved path,it has lready centripetal acceleration.

So, correcdt option is A.
