A car drives toward the right over the top of a hill, as shown below. An illustration of car at the top of a hill pointing right and looking at the side of the car. The is a vector up labeled Z, a vector down labeled X, a vector left labeled Y and a vector right labeled W. Which arrow represents the centripetal acceleration? W X Y Z

Respuesta :

Answer: X

Explanation:

This situation can be illustrated as a car in circular motion (image attached).

In circular motion the acceleration vector [tex]\vec{a}[/tex] is always directed toward the center of the circumference (that's why it's called centripetal acceleration).

So, in this case the arrow labeled X is the only that points toward the center, hence it represents the car's centripetal acceleration
