btw here's the actual question if there isn't enough information a car travels in a flat circle of radius R. at a certain instant the velocity is 24 m/s west, and the total acceleration of the car s 2.5 m/s2 53 degrees north of west. find the radial and tangential components of the acceleration...

i got ar to = 1.99 roughly 2 m/s2 and at = 1.5 m/s2 i just am not sure if i use 53 degrees as the angle or 37 using the numbers above i got 288 m for the radius and 74 s as the period..if someone can verify my work and let me know if I am on the right path that would be great..thanks for your...
