7.2 Angular Speed and Velocity
7.1 Angular Measure
rotation – axis of rotation lies within the
body (example: Earth rotates on its axis)
revolution – axis of rotation lies outside
the body (example: Earth revolves
around the Sun)
• Circular motion is conveniently
described using polar coordinates (r,Ө)
because r is a constant and only Ө
varies.
• Ө is measured counter-clockwise from
the +x axis.
The relationship between
rectangular coordinates
and polar coordinates
are:
x = r cos Ө
y = r sin Ө
7.1 Angular Measure
Angular distance (∆Ө = Ө – Ө0) may be measured in either degrees or radians (rad).
1 rad ≈ 57.3° or 2𝜋 rad = 360°

7.2 Angular Speed and Velocity
The units of angular acceleration are rad/s2.
The way to remember this is the right-hand rule: When the fingers of the right
hand are curled in the direction of rotation, the extended thumb points in the
direction of the angular velocity or angular acceleration vector.
7.2 Angular Speed and
Velocity
a) Tangential and angular speeds are
related by v = rω, with ω in radians
per second.
Note, all of the particles rotating
about a fixed axis travel in circles.
All of the particles have the same
angular speed (ω).
Particles at different distances from
the axis of rotation have different
tangential speeds.
b) Sparks from a grinding wheel
illustrate instantaneous tangential
velocity.
7.2 Angular Speed and Velocity
For every linear quantity or equation there is an analogous angular quantity or
equation. (Assume x0 = 0, θ0 = 0, t0 = 0). Substitute θ → x, ω → v, α → a.

• When angular speed and velocity are given in units of rpm (revolutions per
minute) you should first convert them to rad/s before trying to solve the problem.
Example 7.2a: Convert 33 rpm to rad/s.

7.3 Uniform Circular Motion and Centripetal Acceleration
uniform circular motion
An object moves at a
constant speed in a
circular path.
The speed of an object in uniform
circular motion is constant, but the
object’s velocity changes in the
direction of motion. Therefore, there is
an acceleration.
Fig. 7.8 p.218
7.3 Uniform Circular Motion and Centripetal Acceleration
centripetal acceleration –
center-seeking
For and object in uniform
circular motion, the
centripetal acceleration is
directed towards the center.
There is no acceleration
component in the tangential
direction. If there were, the
magnitude of the velocity
(tangential speed) would
change.
ac = v2 = rω2
r
Fig. 7.10, p.219
7.3 Uniform Circular Motion and Centripetal Acceleration
• From Newton’s second law, Fnet = ma. Therefore, there must be a net force
associated with centripetal acceleration.
• In the case of uniform circular motion, this force is called centripetal force. It is
always directed toward the center of the circle since we know the net force on
an object is in the same direction as acceleration.
Fc = mac = mv2 = mrω2
r
• Centripetal force is not a separate or extra force. It is a net force toward the
center of the circle.
• A centripetal force is always required for objects to stay in a circular path.
Without it, an object will fly out along a tangent line due to inertia.
7.3 Uniform Circular Motion and Centripetal Acceleration
• The time period T, the frequency of rotation f, the radius of the circular path, and
the speed of the particle undergoing uniform circular motion are related by:
T=
2πr
v
=1
f
=2π
ω
centrifugal force – center-fleeing force; a fictitious force; something made up by
nonphysicists; the vector equivalent of a unicorn
Hint: Do not label a force as “centripetal force” on your free-body diagram even if
that force does act toward the center of the circle. Rather, label the actual source
of the force; i.e., tension, friction, weight, electric force, etc.

3. Explain why mud flies off a fast-spinning wheel.
Answer: Centripetal force is proportional to the square of the speed. When
there is insufficient centripetal force (provided by friction and adhesive forces),
the mud cannot maintain the circular path and it flies off along a tangent.
7.4 Angular Acceleration
• Average angular acceleration () is
 = 
t
• The SI unit of angular acceleration is rad/s2.
• The relationship between tangential and angular acceleration is
at = r 
(This is not to be confused with centripetal acceleration, ac).

7.4 Angular Acceleration
In uniform circular motion, there is
centripetal acceleration but
no angular acceleration (α = 0) or
tangential acceleration (at = r α = 0).
In nonuniform circular motion, there are
angular and tangential accelerations.

7.4 Angular Acceleration
• There is always centripetal acceleration no matter whether the circular motion is
uniform or nonuniform.
• It is the tangential acceleration that is zero in uniform circular motion.
Example 7.4: A wheel is rotating wit a constant angular acceleration of 3.5 rad/s2.
If the initial angular velocity is 2.0 rad/s and is speeding up, find
a) the angle the wheel rotates through in 2.0 s
b) the angular speed at t = 2.0 s

many revolutions does it rotate before coming to rest?

the earth.
Fig. 7.20, p. 231
On Earth, we are in a negative
gravitational potential energy well.
Work must be done against gravity to
get higher in the well: in other words,
U becomes less negative.
The top of the well is at infinity, where
the gravitational potential energy is
chosen to be zero.
7.5 Newton’s Law of Gravitation
Example 7.6: The hydrogen atom consists of a proton of mass 1.67 x 10-27 kg and
an orbiting electron of mass 9.11 x 10-31 kg. In one of its orbits, the electron is 5.4
x 10-11 m from the proton and in another orbit, it is 10.6 x 10-11 m from the proton.
a) What are the mutual attractive forces when the electron is in these orbits,
respectively?
a) If the electron jumps from the large orbit to the small one, what is the change in
potential energy?

3. Astronauts in a spacecraft orbiting the Earth or out for a “spacewalk” are seen
to “float” in midair. This is sometimes referred to as weightlessness or zero
gravity (zero g). Are these terms correct? Explain why an astronaut appears
to float in or near an orbiting spacecraft.
Answer: No. Gravity acts on the astronauts and the spacecraft, providing the
necessary centripetal force for the orbit, so g is not zero and there is
weight by definition (w=mg). The “floating” occurs because the spacecraft
and astronauts are “falling” (“accelerating” toward Earth at the same rate).

When a planet is nearer to the sun, the radius of orbit is shorter, and so its linear
momentum must be greater in magnitude (it orbits with greater speed) for angular
momentum to be conserved.

escape speed – the initial speed needed to escape from the surface of a planet
or moon.
• At the top of a planet’s potential energy well, U = 0. An object projected to the
top of the well would have an initial velocity of vesc. At the top of the well, its
velocity would be close to zero. From the conservation of energy, final equals
initial:
K0 + U0 = K + U

• On Earth, since g = GME/ RE2,

• A tangential speed less than the escape speed is required for a satellite to orbit.
• Notice, escape speed does not depend on the mass of the satellite.

what initial speed would it need to begin in order for it to escape the

7.6 Satellites
Note: a geosynchronous satellite orbits the earth with a period of 24 hours so
its motion is synchronized with the earth’s rotation. Viewed by an observer
on earth, a geosynchronous satellite appears to be stationary.
All geosynchronous satellites with circular orbits have the same orbital radius
(36,000 km above sea level for Earth).
7.6 Check for Understanding
A Space Shuttle orbits Earth 300 km above the surface. Why can’t the Shuttle
orbit 10 km above Earth?
a) The Space Shuttle cannot go fast enough to maintain such an orbit.
b) Because r appears in the denominator of Newton’s law of gravitation,
the force of gravity is much larger closer to the Earth; this force is too
strong to allow such an orbit.
c) The closer orbit would likely crash into a large mountain such as
Everest because of its elliptical nature.
d) Much of the Shuttle’s kinetic energy would be dissipated as heat in
the atmosphere, degrading the orbit.
7.6 Check for Understanding
Answer: d. A circular orbit is allowed at any distance from a planet, as long as
the satellite moves fast enough. At 300 km above the surface Earth’s atmosphere
is practically nonexistent. At 10 km, though, the atmospheric friction would quickly
cause the shuttle to slow down.

The period of a satellite is given by the formula: T2 = K r3. This means a specific
