WebbPhysics Circular Motion Big Picture Rotating objects act differently than those in linear or projectile motion. All objects moving in a circular path have linear acceleration because they are constantly changing direction. All of Newton’s laws of motion, which normally only apply to linear motion, have rotational equivalents. Key Terms Webb1. Circular motion (a) angle (in radians) = arc radius or Δθ = Δ S r π rad. = 180° (b) Angular velocity ( ω →) 1. Instantaneous ω = d θ d t 2. Average ω → av = total angular displacement total time taken = Δ θ Δ t if v → linear velocity α → angular acceleration a → linear acceleration (c) v = rω and v → = ω → × r →

Webb1) When objects move in a circular path they are accelerating even though they are travelling at constant speed. Students often think this because they have learnt or assume that acceleration only means speeding up or slowing down and the fact that a change in direction is also an indicator of acceleration is overlooked or played down. WebbWhen an object is moving in uniform circular motionalthough its velocity is constantly changing, its tangential velocity at any two points will be equal.

WebbCentripetal force is a force that causes an object to follow a circular path. It acts toward the center of the circle. Gravitation, or the gravitational force, is the force of attraction that all objects with mass exert on each other. The gravitational force acts as the centripetal force for objects in orbit.
