8 m/s²
4 m/s²
16 m/s²
10 m/s²
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The acceleration of an electron moving in a circular path can be calculated using the formula for centripetal acceleration, , where is the speed and is the radius. Substituting the given values, , confirming option (A) as correct. Options (B), (C), and (D) are incorrect as they do not match the calculated centripetal acceleration based on the provided speed and radius.
