    How Do You Find the Ratio of Centripetal Acceleration for Different Radii?

    well Well there really isn't any work to be shown to this problem; it's more conceptual. Albeit you either know how to do it or you don't. It's not like I could have attempted anything, as I didn't even know where to begin with JUST the two radius'.

    How Do You Find the Ratio of Centripetal Acceleration for Different Radii?

    ok Had I been looking for a direct answer I would have stated so in my first post. I agree, giving someone an answer is meaningless, but i'd rather have you explain the answer, or atleast how to go about doing it.

    How Do You Find the Ratio of Centripetal Acceleration for Different Radii?

    nvm, I got the answer. Why couldn't you just explain that I had to divide the two numbers instead of asking me for the Ac formula, which I already knew? I hate teachers that make me in circles trying to find an answer.

    How Do You Find the Ratio of Centripetal Acceleration for Different Radii?

    reply Ac=v^2/r But the problem only gives you two radius', so I'm not sure what to do next.

    How Do You Find the Ratio of Centripetal Acceleration for Different Radii?

    I am having some trouble with this problem, an explanation on how to do this would be awesome, thanks: The large blade of a helicopter is rotating in a horizontal circle. The length of the blade is 6.40 m, measured from its tip to the center of the circle. Find the ratio of the centripetal...
