This may seem like a silly way to second-guess an answer, but the problem below seems to have an answer entirely too easy to obtain. And I doubt that I'm getting any better.
An athlete rotates a 1.00-kg discus along a circular path of radius 1.06m. The maximum speed of the discus is 20.0m/s. Determine the magnitude of the maximum radial acceleration of the discus.
ar = -ac = -(v^2/r)
= -(20^2/1.06)
= -377.358 m/s^2
