I can't see the diagram you mean — could you upload the image or describe the four arrows (A–D) and where the circle's center is relative to the car?

Meanwhile, key idea you can use to pick the correct letter:
- Centripetal acceleration always points radially inward, toward the center of the circular path (perpendicular to the instantaneous velocity).
- It is not tangent to the path and not outward.
So whichever arrow among A–D points straight toward the center of the circle is the correct choice. If you tell me which arrow that is (or share the picture) I’ll confirm.
