Circular Motion

        Help!  

Question
Answer
When calculating angles in circular motion we use units of?   Radians  
🗑
To convert from degrees to radians we multiply by   pi/180  
🗑
To convert todegrees from radians multiply by   180/pi  
🗑
Angular velocity is....   the angle swept out by a radius per unit time, symbol w  
🗑
The units for angular velocity is   rad/s  
🗑
angular velocity =   angle change/time  
🗑
angular velocity is also related to   the frequency of a system  
🗑
angular velocity also =   2 x pi x f  
🗑
The time period of a system can be eqauted to   1/f or 2pi/angular velocity  
🗑
The linear speed of an object moving in a circle is related to   its angular velocity  
🗑
linear speed =   radius x angular velocity  
🗑
The force on an object moving in a circular path is also called   centripetal force  
🗑
the size of a centripetal force is given by either   F=mv^2/r or mrw^2  
🗑
centripetal acceleration =   v^2/r or rw^2  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
