ROTATIONAL AND CIRCULAR MOTION Flashcards
what is circular motion?
motion of a body in circular path
formula for arc length s
s = rθ
what is angular displacement
angle covered by radial line when a particle moves from one point to another on the circumference of the circle
formula for θ
θ = s/r
arc length is _______ proportional to angular displacement
directly
which factor of velocity remains constant in circular motion/
the magnitude
if the body is moving in a circle of radius r and linear velocity v, the formula for angular velocity will be
ω = v/r
if the duration of time is same for the rotation of two objects, the ratio of angular speed is
1:1
same
if an object rotating in a circle tied with a string is released, it will move
tangentially outward
