Linear Motion d – distance (in meters) v – velocity (in meters/second) a – acceleration (in meters/second2) Distance = 2r
Objects moving in a circle still have a linear velocity = distance/time. This is often called tangential velocity, since the direction of the linear velocity is tangent to the circle. Linear/Tangential Velocity v
Angular Motion – angular displacement (in radians) – angular velocity (in radians/second) – angular acceleration (in radians/second2) r – radius of circle (in meters)
The point or line that is the center of the circle is the axis of rotation. If the axis of rotation is inside the object, the object is rotating (spinning). If the axis of rotation is outside the object, the object is revolving. Circular Motion Terms
Objects moving in a circle also have a rotational or angular velocity, which is the rate angular position changes. Rotational velocity is measured in degrees/second, rotations/minute (rpm), etc. Common symbol, w (Greek letter omega) Angular Velocity Dq
If an object is rotating: All points on the object have the same rotational (angular) velocity. All points on the object do not have the same linear (tangential) velocity. Linear velocity of a point depends on: The rotational velocity of the point. More rotational velocity means more linear velocity. The distance from the point to the axis of rotation. More distance from the axis means more linear velocity In symbols: Rotational & Linear Velocity v r w v = r w

If an object is rotating: All points on the object have the same Angular velocity. All points on the object do not have the same linear (tangential) velocity. Angular & Linear Velocity
Linear velocity of a point depends on: The Angular velocity of the point. More rotational velocity means more linear velocity. The distance from the point to the axis of rotation. More distance from the axis means more linear velocity. Angular & Linear Velocity
As an object moves around a circle, its direction of motion is constantly changing. Therefore its velocity is changing. Therefore an object moving in a circle is constantly accelerating. Acceleration
The acceleration of an object moving in a circle points toward the center of the circle. This is called a centripetal (center pointing) acceleration. Centripetal Acceleration ac
Centripetal Acceleration The centripetal acceleration depends on: The velocity of the object. The radius of the circle.

Newton’s Second Law says that if an object is accelerating, there must be a net force on it. For an object moving in a circle, this is called the centripetal force. The centripetal force points toward the center of the circle. Centripetal Force
In order to make an object revolve about an axis, the net force on the object must pull it toward the center of the circle. This force is called a centripetal (center seeking) force. Centripetal Force Fc
Centripetal force on an object depends on: The object’s mass - more mass means more force. The object’s velocity - more speed means more force. And… Centripetal Force
Centripetal Force The centripetal force on an object also depends on: The object’s distance from the axis (radius). If linear velocity is held constant, more distance requires less force. If rotational velocity is held constant, more distance requires more force.
Torque Is the measure of how effectively a force causes rotation.

Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation states that every particle in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Gravity is a consequence of mass. The force of gravity between two objects is directly proportional to the product of the objects’ masses. The force of gravity between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects’ centers of mass.
