Acceleration around a running track
Reply to thread
Message
[QUOTE="haruspex, post: 5456018, member: 334404"] The statement of the question is not quite right. The 5.11m/s is a speed, not a velocity. Velocity is a vector so also has a direction. The speed is just the magnitude of the velocity. Since the speed is constant, the acceleration consists of its changes in direction. What kind of acceleration do you associate with an object going around in circles? What equations do you know that relate to that? [/QUOTE]
