Circular Motion Flashcards
0
Q
Acceleration in circular motion (given velocity)
A
a=(v^2)/r
1
Q
Velocity in circular motion
A
Perpendicular to the radius at all times
v=2πr/T
T is the period
2
Q
Radius length rule
A
The further the point on the radius, the faster the motion
3
Q
Centripetal Force
A
Force that holds the object toward the center of the cicle
Equal to the tension in the radius
F=m(v^2)/r
4
Q
Acceleration of circular motion (given period)
A
A=(4π^2*r)/T
5
Q
Total distance traveled in circular motion
A
d=2πr*(Complete Rotations)
6
Q
Circumference of rotation
A
d=2πr
