Question

define radial acceleration

Answer 1

Radial Acceleration. ... The law of newton's states that radial acceleration depends on the radius of circular path and speed and it is essential for uniform circular motion. It is directed towards radius while tangential acceleration is in the direction of the tangent of the circle.

Answer 2
