    Centripetal acceleration of fairgrounds ride

    I get you have to use ac=Vt/r and that r will equal 8 and ac= 2.60. I think you will change the formlua to ac*r=Vt

    Centripetal acceleration of fairgrounds ride

    A fairgrounds ride spins its occupants inside a flying-saucer-shaped container. If the horizontal circular path the riders follow has a 8.00 m radius, at how many revolutions per minute will the riders be subjected to a centripetal acceleration 2.60 times that of gravity?
