energy

Energy

Explanation:   The ability to do work or cause change is called energy. Energy comes from many sources, and is found in two main forms. One form, potential energy, is energy that has the potential, in an object at rest, to do work later. An example of this would be a car parked at the top of a hill with its brakes on.

initial speed when it is dropped is 150 ft/s

now at the same moment the acceleration due to gravity is perpendicular to its velocity

so as we know that

now we have centripetal acceleration a = 32 ft/s^2 as its perpendicular to velocity

while tangential acceleration at the same moment will be zero

so

now radius of curvature is given as

so the radius of curvature just after it is dropped is 703.125 ft
