-As the radius of a turn being made by an aircraft increases,the centripetal acceleration on the aircraft
A)​increases
B)​decreases

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Centripetal acceleration is directly proportional to the square of the velocity and inversely proportional to the radius of the turn. So, as the radius of the turn increases, the centripetal acceleration decreases.
