Circular Motion Flashcards
Angular displacement formula
Change in s/ r
Radian definition
Angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc equal in length to the radius of the circle
Angular speed definition
Rate of change in angular displacement with respect to time
Angular velocity formula
W=v/r
Centripetal acceleration definition
Acceleration of an object towards the center of a circle when an object is in motion around a circle at constant speed
Centripetal acceleration formula
A=v^2/r linear speed/ radius
A=rw^2
A=vw
Centripetal force formula
F=mv^2/r
f=mrw^2
F=mvw
Angular displacement definition
Change in angle, in radians of a body as it rotates
Angular speed formula
W= change in angular displacement/ change in time
W= 2pi/ T
W= 2pif
