Answer:
The centripetal acceleration of the car doing gentle curve is less than its counterpart of a sharp curve.
Explanation:
A sharp curve would have a lower curvature radius than a gentle curve:
Since the formula for the centripetal acceleration is
[tex]a = \frac{v^2}{r}[/tex] with r in the denominator.
if the velocity is the same, and the gentle curve has larger radius, then the centripetal acceleration of the car doing gentle curve must be less than its counterpart of a sharp curve.
