5.1 and 5.2
Uniform Circular Motion and
Centripetal Acceleration
Centripetal force keeps an
object in circular motion.
10.1 Rotation and Revolution
Earth undergoes both types of rotational motion.
• It revolves around the sun once every 365 ¼ days.
• It rotates around an axis passing through its geographical poles once
every 24 hours.
Uniform Circular Motion
 Period (T) – Time it takes
to make one trip around
the circle
 Circumference – distance
around the circle
– C = 2r
– Object is traveling at a
constant (uniform)
speed on a circular path
10.2 Rotational Speed
The turntable rotates around its axis while a ladybug sitting at its edge revolves
around the same axis.
Linear speed is the distance traveled per unit of time.
• Tangential speed – the linear speed
of an object along a circular path
The greater distance from the axis the greater the tangential speed
10.2 Rotational Speed
Tangential and Rotational Speed
Tangential speed and rotational speed are related. Tangential speed is directly
proportional to the rotational speed and the radial distance from the axis of rotation.
Tangential Velocity ~ radial distance
× rotational speed
Vt = r * w
10.2 Rotational Speed
In symbol form,
v ~ r
where v is tangential speed and 
(pronounced
oh MAY guh) is rotational speed.
• You move faster if the rate of rotation
increases (bigger ).
• You also move faster if you are farther
from the axis (bigger r).
Uniform Circular Motion
 Speed (v) – distance / time
1.2 m
 Find v
 v = 3.77 m/s
T=2s
Uniform Circular Motion
 Speed is constant
 Velocity is not constant
 Velocity is always changing
 This acceleration is “centripetal”
acceleration
5.2 Centripetal Acceleration
 Object moves in
circular path
 At time t0 it is at point
O with a velocity
tangent to the circle
 At time t, it is at point P
with a velocity tangent
to the circle
 The radius has moved
through angle 
Centripetal Acceleration
 Draw the two velocity
vectors so that they
have the same tails.
 The vector connecting
the heads is v
 Draw the triangle
made by the change in
position and you get
the triangle in (b)
Centripetal Acceleration
 Since the triangles
have the same angle
are isosceles, they are
similar
Centripetal Acceleration
Centripetal Acceleration
Know this
Centripetal Acceleration
 Forces cause acceleration
 F=ma
 Ac = V2 / r
 Fc = m (v2 / r)
centripetal acceleration
centripetal force
 Centripetal acceleration – acceleration
toward the center
 Centripetal force – a center directed force
that causes an object to move in a curved
path
 Gravity provides constant centripetal force

1. A 20 kg child is on the merry go round. If
she is 3 m from the center of the merry go
round and her tangential velocity is 2 m/s what
is her centripetal acceleration? Which
equation are you using?
2. When a can is twirled in a circle, what is the
direction of acceleration?
Today : Spinning stopper lab
 What are the variables that can be changed
in the spinning stopper?
 What do you think affects the rate at which
the stopper spins?
Centripetal Acceleration
 At any given moment
– v is pointing tangent to the circle
– ac is pointing towards the center of the circle
 If the object suddenly broke from circular
motion would travel in line tangent to circle
10.3 Centripetal Force
Calculating Centripetal Forces
Greater speed and greater mass require greater centripetal force.
Traveling in a circular path with a smaller radius of curvature requires a greater
centripetal force.
Centripetal force, Fc, is measured in newtons when m is expressed in kilograms, v in
meters/second, and r in meters.

and gravity.
14.3 Elliptical Orbits
A simple method of constructing an ellipse is shown here.
14.3 Elliptical Orbits
What happens if you launch a satellite at 9 km/s
Satellite speed varies in an elliptical orbit.
• When the initial speed is more than 8 km/s, the satellite overshoots
a circular path and moves away from Earth.
• It loses speed due to the pull of gravity.
• The satellite slows to a point where it no longer recedes, and
begins falling back toward Earth.

a. When the satellite exceeds 8 km/s, it overshoots a circle.

14.4 Energy Conservation and Satellite Motion
For a satellite in circular orbit, no force acts along the direction of motion.
The speed, and thus the KE, cannot change.
14.3 Elliptical Orbits

The orbit of a satellite is shown in
the sketch. In which of the positions
A through D does the satellite have
the greatest speed? The least speed?
Answer:
The satellite has its greatest speed as it whips around A. It
has its least speed at C. Beyond C, it gains speed as it falls
back to A to repeat its cycle.

14.3 Elliptical Orbits
What is the shape of the path of a satellite in an orbit around
Earth?
 Conservation of energy total energy stays
the same
 Total energy = kinetic energy + potential
energy
 Kinetic energy = energy due to speed
 Potential energy = energy due to distance
14.4 Energy Conservation and Satellite Motion
• The PE is greatest when the satellite is at the apogee and least when the
satellite is at the perigee.
• The KE will be least when the PE is most; and the KE will be most when
the PE is least.
• At every point in the orbit, the sum of the KE and PE is constant.
14.4 Energy Conservation and Satellite Motion
For a satellite in circular orbit, no force acts along the direction of motion.
