Answer:
The centripetal acceleration of the stone is 5 m/s²
Explanation:
The length of the string to which the stone is attached, r = 1 m
The speed with which the string is rotated, v = 5 m/s
The centripetal acceleration, [tex]a_c[/tex], is given as follows;
[tex]a_c = \dfrac{v^2}{r}[/tex]
Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the stone found as follows;
[tex]a_c = \dfrac{(5 \ m/s)^2}{1 \ m} = 5 \ m/s^2[/tex]
The centripetal acceleration of the stone, [tex]a_c[/tex] = 5 m/s².
