Question: A particle is moving along a curved path at a constant speed v. The radii of curvature of the path at points P and P'

A particle is moving along a curved path at a constant speed v. The radii of curvature of the path at points P and P' are ρ and ρ', respectively. If it takes the particle time t to go from P to P', determine the acceleration of the particle at P and P'. 
Given:V = 60 S p = 20 ft p = 50 ft

V = 60 S p = 20 ft p = 50 ft t = 20 s
