Answer:

8 m

Explanation:

1) Radius of curvature is minimum when velocity becomes perpendicular to acceleration .

So, we have

v_{\perp}=v_o cos(60^{\circ}) =8*0.5=4m/s

And the magnitude of this component will not change with time.

Hence,

Radius of curvature is

R = \frac{v_{\perp}^2}{|a|} = \frac{4^2}{2} = 8m

Hence,  The minimum radius of curvature on trajectory

of the body is​  8 m.
