Answer:
The magnitude of the acceleration of the car at point A is four times that of the car at point E
Explanation:
Car at point A and at point E are traveling along the same radius
So, they both have a common radius r
Now, car At point A now move with twice the velocity of car at point E
Let the velocity of car at point E be Ve=V
Then, the velocity of the car at point A is twice that at point E,
Therefore Va =2V
Now we want to compare their acceleration
The centripetal acceleration of a circular motion is given as
a=v²/r
Then, for car at point E, since Ve=V, the acceleration will be,
ae=v²/r
ae=V²/r
Then, for car at point A, since Va=2V, the acceleration will be
aa=v²/r
aa=(2V)²/r
aa=4V²/r
aa=4•V²/r. Since ae=V²/r
aa=4•ae
Note: ae is acceleration at point E and aa is the acceleration at point A
It is notice that the acceleration of the car at point A is four time that of point E.
