Answer:
a= 3.49 m/s^2
Explanation:
magnitude of total acceleration = sqrt{radial acceleration^2+tangential acceleration^2}.
we know that tangential acceleration a_t= change in velocity /time taken
now 90 km/h = 25 m/s
a_t = 25/17 = 1.47 m/s^2.
radial acceleration a_r = v^2/r
v= a_t×t = 1.47×13 = 19.11 m/s
a_r = 19.11^2/115= 3.175
now,
[tex]a= \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}[/tex]
[tex]a= \sqrt{1.47^2+3.175^2}[/tex]
a= 3.49 m/s^2
