Batesville High School Physics
![Page 2: Concept Summary Batesville High School Physics. Circular Motion Terms The point or line that is the center of the circle is the axis of rotation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082411/56649d9c5503460f94a853fc/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Circular Motion TermsThe 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.

Linear/Tangential VelocityObjects 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.

Rotational/Angular VelocityObjects 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.

Rotational/Angular Velocity
• Rotational velocity = Change in angletime

Rotational & Linear Velocity 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.

Rotational & Linear VelocityLinear 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.

AccelerationAs 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.

Centripetal AccelerationThe acceleration of an object moving in
a circle points toward the center of the circle.
This is called a centripetal (center pointing) acceleration.

Centripetal AccelerationThe centripetal acceleration depends
on: The speed of the object. The radius of the circle.

Centripetal ForceNewton’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 ForceCentripetal force on an object depends
on: The object’s mass - more mass means
more force. The object’s speed - more speed means
more force. And…

Centripetal ForceThe 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.

Work Done by the Centripetal Force
Since the centripetal force on an object is always perpendicular to the object’s velocity, the centripetal force never does work on the object - no energy is transformed.

“Centrifugal Force” “Centrifugal force” is a fictitious force -
it is not an interaction between 2
objects, and therefore not a real force.
Nothing pulls an object away from the center of the circle.

“Centrifugal Force”What is erroneously attributed to
“centrifugal force” is actually the action of the object’s inertia - whatever velocity it has (speed + direction) it wants to keep.
