An amateur race driver is driving her car at a constant speed of 40.0 m/s on a circular track with radius of 255 (a) What is the angular speed (in rad/s) of the car? rad/s (b) What are the magnitude (in m/s²) and direction of the car's acceleration? magnitude m/s2 direction toward the center of the track, parallel to the velocity, away from the center of the track, straight downward

A race car, starting from rest, travels around a circular turn of radius 22.5 m. At a certain instant, the car is still speeding up, and its angular speed is 0.541 rad/s. At this time, the car's total acceleration vector (centripetal plus tangential) makes an angle of 39.0° with respect to the car's velocity. What is the magnitude of the car's total acceleration?

A racing car travels on a circular track of radius 250 $\mathrm{m}$ . Assuming the car moves with a constant speed of 45.0 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ , find (a) its angular speed and (b) the magnitude and direction of its acceleration.
