Answer:
Centripetal acceleration = 3.125 m/s²
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Radius, r = 50 m
Velocity, V = 12.5 m/s
To find the centripetal acceleration;
Centripetal acceleration = Velocity²/radius
Centripetal acceleration = 12.5²/50
Centripetal acceleration = 156.25/50
Centripetal acceleration = 3.125 m/s²
Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the greyhound running on a circular track is 3.125 meters per seconds square.
