Accepted Answer

The exact centripetal acceleration experienced by passenger  ∝ₙ and  driver ∝ⁿ is 80m/s²  & 66.67m/s² respectively.Mathematically , Centripetal acceleration ∝= v²/rIn the given question velocity will be same for passengers and driver because of common frame.But the radius is different since distance from each points of frame to the Centre of road will vary. so their centripetal acceleration will differ. ∝= v²/r using this we can find out the exact centripetal acceleration experienced by passenger  ∝ₙ and  driver ∝ⁿ ∝ₙ= 20²/5= 80m/s² ∝ⁿ=20²/6= 66.67m/s²To Know more about Centripetal acceleration - https://brainly.com/question/15285661?referrer=searchResults#SPJ1
