Detailed Solution

The acceleration vector shall change the component of velocity u∥ along the acceleration vector.r=v2anRadius of curvature rmin means v is minimum and an is maximum. This is at point P when component of velocity parallel to acceleration vector becomes zero, that is u∥=0∴ R=u⊥2a=422=8m
