Answer:

TOTAL ACCELERATION =10.229m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

total acceleration = [tex]\sqrt{centripetal accleration^{2} +tagential acceleration^{2} }[/tex]

since tangential speed is constant , tangential acceleration =0

Thus total acceleration = centripetal acceleration.

centripetal acceleration = v²/r

v=82.6m/s  , r= 667m

centripetal acceleration = 82.6²/667

centripetal acceleration = 10.229m/s²

TOTAL ACCELERATION =10.229m/s²
