Find distance car driving-constant speed suffer acceleration


The portion of a race track between points A (corresponding to x=0) and B is part of a parabolic curve described by the equation y=k(x^2), where k is constant. Let g denote the acceleration due to gravity. If k = 0.4*10^(-3) ft^(-1), determine d such that a car driving at constant speed v0=180mph experiences at B an acceleration with magnitude equal to g.
