Chapter 6 Motion In A Circle Flashcards
(6 cards)
1
Q
Angular displacement
A
The angle of rotation of body about an axis in a specific direction from a reference point
2
Q
Angular velocity
A
Rate of change of angular displacement of a body
3
Q
Linear velocity, v formula
A
V=rω
4
Q
Centripetal acceleration formula
A
a = v^2/r = rω^2
5
Q
Centripetal Force
A
F=ma
6
Q
What happens if the resultant force f on the body is more than equal to or less than the centripetal force
A
Greater than means the body moves towards the center
Less than means the body moves away from the center
Equal to means the body maintains its circular motion
