What is the magnitude of the acceleration of a sprinter running at 10 m/s. when round

How to solve

Your question seems to have ben cut off. Are you asking about acceleration for the case of a sprinter running at constant speed on a circular track? If so, the centripedal acceleration is:

$<br /> a = \frac {v^2} R = \omega^2 R<br />$

where 'v' is the speed, 'R' the radius of the circular track, and $\omega$ is rotational velocity in radians per unit time.
