A marble slides down on a curved path defined by the parabola y = 0.4x2. When it is at point “A” (xA = 2m; yA = 1.6m), the velocity of the marble v = 8m/s and the tangental acceleration due to gravity is dv / dt = 4ms2. Calculate the normal component and the total magnitude of the accelarion of the mable in that instant.
