Explanation:
Centripetal acceleration, property of the motion of a body traversing a circular path. The acceleration is directed radially toward the centre of the circle and has a magnitude equal to the square of the body's speed along the curve divided by the distance from the centre of the circle to the moving body.

The Centripetal Component of acceleration arises when a body is traveling in a circular path.
- When a body travels in a circular motion, it constantly changes direction with change in direction, the velocity also changes which results produce Centripetal Acceleration.
- This acceleration is radially directed toward the circle's center. The centripetal acceleration, denoted by the symbol ac, has a magnitude equal to the square of the body's velocity along the curve divided by the radius of the circle, denoted by the symbol r.
- This is also known as the formula ac = v2/r. Units for centripetal acceleration are meters per second squared.
Hence, it arises when the body travels in a circular path, and the change in acceleration results in centripetal acceleration.
