Cicula Motion M. Velazquez AP/Honos Physics
Objects in Cicula Motion Accoding to Newton s Laws, if no foce acts on an object, it will move with constant speed in a constant diection. Theefoe, if an object moves along a cuved o cicula path, thee must be a foce acting on it to keep it on this tajectoy. To keep an object in cicula motion, a foce diected towad the cente of otation is equied. We call this the centipetal foce. It also follows that since thee is a foce diected towad the cente, thee must also be acceleation towad the cente of the cicle. Centipetal Acceleation a c = v2 Centipetal Foce F c = ma c = mv2

Angula Kinematics: Position The most of the angula quantities is angula position, defined as the change in angle fom the efeence line. Fo this quantity we will need to look at angles in adians instead of degees. One adian is the angle fo which the ac length on a cicle of adius is equal to the adius of the cicle, o about 57.3 θ θ ev π 180 2π 1 ev = θ ads = θ ads θ = angle measued in adians 360 = 2π ad = 1 ev Ac length: s = θ
Angula Kinematics: Velocity Angula velocity descibes how quickly the angle of motion is changing ove time. We can measue this quantity in adians pe second (ad/s) o evolutions pe minute (pm) ω = θ t θ = ωt ω = s t ω = v t Aveage Angula Velocity: ω av = θ t
Angula Kinematics: Peiod We efe to the time it takes to complete one evolution as the peiod (T) of motion. Its invese quantity is the numbe of evolutions in one unit of time (usually 1 second); this quantity is known as the fequency (f) Fo one evolution: ω = θ t ω = 2π T = 2πf T = 2π ω = 1 f Units fo T: seconds (s) Units fo f: evolutions pe second o Hetz (Hz = s 1 )

Calculate the angula displacement, angula velocity and the peiod of evolution. s = θ θ = s = 0.275 m 2.15 m θ = 0. 128 ad ω = θ t = 0.128 ad 0.0700 s ω = 1. 83 ad s θ T = 2π ω = 2π 1.83 ad s = 3. 43 s
Angula Kinematics: Acceleation If the angula velocity of an object in cicula motion is inceasing ove time, we can descibe the angula acceleation α of the object as the change in angula velocity ω ove time t. α av = ω t If tangential acceleation (a T ) emains constant: α = v t α = a T
Rotational Kinematic Equations Each linea kinematic equation has an analogous equation fo angula kinematics. The table below shows these equations: Linea Equations (a = constant) v = v 0 + at x = x 0 + v 0 t + 1 2 at2 Angula Equations (α = constant) ω = ω 0 + αt θ = θ 0 + ω 0 t + 1 2 αt2 v 2 = v 0 2 + 2a(x x 0 ) ω 2 = ω 0 2 + 2α(θ θ 0 )
Rotational Kinematics To thow a cuve ball, a pitche applies topspin to the ball equivalent to an angula speed of 36.0 ad/s. When the catche gloves the ball 0.595 seconds late, its angula speed has deceased (due to ai esistance) to 34.2 ad/s. a) What is the ball s angula acceleation, assuming it is constant? b) How many complete evolutions will the ball make befoe being caught by the catche? Angula Equations (α = constant) ω = ω 0 + αt θ = θ 0 + ω 0 t + 1 2 αt2 ω 2 = ω 0 2 + 2α(θ θ 0 )
Tangential Quantities At any instant, an object moving with cicula motion has a diection that is tangential to the cicula path. Fom this, we can define vecto quantities that act tangent to the cicle, which we call tangential quantities. a t Tangential Velocity v t = ω v t a c a t a c Tangential Acceleation a t = α v t θ Centipetal Acceleation a c = v2 = (ω)2 a c = ω 2 = 2 ω 2 a c a t a
Tangential Quantities We can conside the centipetal and tangential acceleation to be two components of one single vecto acceleation with a magnitude a and a diection φ (elative to the tangential diection). a t a = Total Acceleation (Magnitude) a c 2 + a t 2 a t a c v t a c Total Acceleation (Diection) v t θ φ = tan 1 a c a t a c a t φ a
