An arc of a circle is a "portion" of the
circumference of the circle.
The length of an arc is simply the length of its
"portion" of the circumference. Actually, the
circumference itself can be considered an arc length.
The length of an arc (or arc length) is traditionally
symbolized by s.
The radian measure of a central angle of a circle
is defined as the ratio of the length of the
arc the angle subtends, s, divided by the
radius of the circle, r.
ALGEBRA 2 REVIEW, CONT.
Relationship between Degrees and Radians:
 When the arc length equals an entire
circumference, we can use s = θr to get 2πr= θr
and 2π = θ.
 This implies that 2π = 360o

ANGULAR MEASURE
Circular motion is described using
polar coordinates, (r, q)
 x=rcosq and y = rsinq, where q is
measured counterclockwise (ccw)
from the positive x-axis.
 Angle is defined as q = s/r, where s is the arc
length, r is the radius, and q is the angle in
radians. Also expressed as s=rq
 Angular distance, Δq = q - qo is measured in
degrees or radians. A radian is the angle that
subtends an arc length that is equal to the
radius (s=r)
 1 rad = 57.3o , or 2rad = 360o

EXAMPLE 1

When you are watching the NASCAR Daytona
500, the 5.5 m long race car subtends an
angle of 0.31o . What is the distance from the
race car to you?
SOLUTION TO EXAMPLE 1
UNIFORM CIRCULAR MOTION IS THE MOTION OF
AN OBJECT IN A CIRCLE WITH A CONSTANT OR
UNIFORM SPEED.
 When moving in a circle, an object traverses a
distance around the perimeter of the circle
 The distance of one complete cycle around the
perimeter of a circle is known as the
circumference
 This relationship between the circumference of
a circle, the time to complete one cycle around
the circle, and the speed of the object is merely
an extension of the average speed equation
COMBINING KINEMATICS AND CIRCULAR
MEASUREMENT TO CALCULATE SPEED
The circumference of any circle can be
computed using from the radius according to
the equation
Circumference = 2*pi*Radius
 relating the speed of an object moving in
uniform circular motion to the radius of the
circle and the time to make one cycle around
the circle (period, T), where R=radius:

ANGULAR SPEED AND VELOCITY

Instantaneous angular speed is the magnitude of
the instantaneous angular velocity

Tangential (linear) speed and angular speed are
related to each other through
where r is the radius.
 The time it takes for an object to go through one
revolution is called the period, T.
 Then number of revolutions in one second is
called the frequency, f
THE DIRECTION OF THE VELOCITY VECTOR
Velocity, being a vector,
has both a magnitude
and a direction
 Since an object is
moving in a circle, its
direction is continuously
changing
 direction of the velocity
vector is tangential to
the circular path

EXAMPLE 2

A bicycle wheel rotates uniformly through 2.0
revolutions in 4.0 s.
a) What is the angular speed of the wheel?
b) What is the tangential speed of a point
0.10 m from the center of the wheel?
c) What is the period?
d) What is the frequency?
ACCELERATION
an accelerating object is an object which is
changing its velocity.
 a change in either the magnitude or the
direction constitutes a change in the velocity.
 an object moving in a circle at constant speed
is accelerating because the direction of the
velocity vector is changing.

CHANGE IN VELOCITY
The acceleration of the object is in the same
direction as the velocity change vector
 Objects moving in circles at a constant speed
accelerate towards the center of the circle.

CENTRIPETAL ACCELERATION
The linear tangential velocity vector changes
direction as the object moves along the circle.
 This acceleration is called centripetal
acceleration (center-seeking) because it is
always directed toward the center of the circle.
 The magnitude of centripetal acceleration is
given by

CENTRIPETAL FORCE
From Newton’s Second Law, we conclude that
there MUST be a net force associated with
centripetal acceleration.
 Centripetal force is always directed toward the
center of the circle since the net force on an
object is in the same direction as acceleration.


circular curve of radius 50 m with a speed of

friction between the car and the curve?

THE CAUSE OF CENTRIPETAL FORCE
In order to have an acceleration, there MUST be
a force
 What provides that force?

Tension
Applied Force
Friction
Spring Force
Gravitational Force
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE FORCE VANISHES?
MOTION IN A HORIZONTAL CIRCLE
The speed at which the object moves depends
on the mass of the object and the tension in
the cord
 The centripetal force is supplied by the tension

CIRCULAR MOTION ABOUT A CONICAL PENDULUM
The object is in equilibrium in the vertical
direction and undergoes uniform circular
motion in the horizontal
direction
 v is independent of m

HORIZONTAL (FLAT) CURVE
The force of static friction
supplies the centripetal force
 The maximum speed at
which the car can negotiate
the curve is

BANKED CURVE

There is a component of
the normal force that
supplies the centripetal
force
FICTIONAL FORCES
From the frame of the passenger (b),
a force appears to push her toward the
door
 From the frame of the Earth, the car
applies a leftward force on the
passenger
 The outward force is often called a
centrifugal force
 It is a fictitious force due to the
acceleration associated with the car’s
change in direction

THE GREAT MISCONCEPTION
Centrifugal, not to be confused with centripetal,
means away from the center or outward.
 Circular motion leaves the moving person with
the sensation of being thrown OUTWARD from
the center of the circle rather than INWARD
 It’s really just inertia!

EFFECTS OF “PRETEND” FORCES
Although fictitious forces are not real forces, they
can have real effects
 Examples:
 Objects in the car do slide
 You feel pushed to the outside of a rotating
platform
 The Coriolis force is responsible for the rotation of
weather systems and ocean currents

TORQUE: MEASUREMENT OF THE TENDENCY OF A
FORCE TO PRODUCE A ROTATION ABOUT AN AXIS.
 Torque
= perpendicular force x lever arm
τ=F x d
 d = distance from the pivot point, or
fulcrum, to the point where the
component of the force perpendicular to
the lever arm is being exerted
 The longer the lever arm, the larger the
torque
Counterclockwise rotation = POSITIVE τ
 Clockwise rotation = NEGATIVE τ
 Units = Newton x meter = Nm (but NOT equal to
Joules because torque is not a form of energy)
 NOTE: weight is a force that can produce torque
if the object is not supported at its center of
gravity.
