B 0.56 s
C 4.3s
D 70s

Answer:

C. 4.3 seconds

Explanation:

B 0.56 s is the time period of a twirlers baton.

What is Centripetal Acceleration?

Centripetal acceleration is defined as the property of the motion of an object which traversing a circular path.

Any object that is moving in a circle and has an acceleration vector pointed towards the center of that circle is known as Centripetal acceleration.

The centripetal acceleration is given by:

a = 4π²R/T²

Given values are:

a = 47.8 m/s²

D = 0.76 m  so , R = 0.76/2 = 0.38m

Using this formula,

47.8*T² = 4π² x0.38

T² = [tex]\frac{4*3.14^2*0.38}{47.8}[/tex]

T = 0.56 s

Therefore,

A twirlers baton is 0.76 m long and spins around its center. The end of the baton has a centripetal acceleration of 47.8 m/s2 which have  time period of 0.56 s.
