Two cars are traveling at the same speed of 28 m/s on a curve that has a radius of 124 m. Car A has a mass of 1080 kg, and car B has a mass of 1500 kg. Find (a) the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration and (b) the magnitude of the centripetal force for Car A, (c) the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration and (d) the magnitude of the centripetal force for Car B.
I used the formula V=sqrt(rg tan theta)
for part a: v=sqrt(151*9.80 tan theta)
For part b: v=sqrt (115*9.80 tan theta)
But how would i find theta?
