5-1 Kinematics of 5-1 Kinematics of Uniform Circular MotionUniform Circular Motion
Uniform circular motion is when an object Uniform circular motion is when an object moves in a circle at constant speed.moves in a circle at constant speed.
ExamplesExamples The magnitude of the velocity remains The magnitude of the velocity remains
constant, but the direction continually constant, but the direction continually changes so the object accelerateschanges so the object accelerates
Acceleration is the change in velocity Acceleration is the change in velocity which includes both speed and directionwhich includes both speed and direction
Acceleration is defined Acceleration is defined as:as:

Where Δv is the change in velocity during a short time interval Δt
5-1 Kinematics of Uniform Circular MotionLooking at the change in velocity in the limit that the time interval becomes infinitesimally small, we see that

According to Newton’s second law According to Newton’s second law ΣΣF=maF=ma
This is true of linear motion as well as This is true of linear motion as well as circular motioncircular motion
SoSo ΣΣFFRR=ma=maRR= mv= mv22

Centripetal force isn’t a new kind of force Centripetal force isn’t a new kind of force it just indicates the direction.it just indicates the direction.
This force must be applied by another This force must be applied by another object on the object in circular motion.object on the object in circular motion.

ball on a string you feel the “outward” ball on a string you feel the “outward” pull, but that is the equal and opposite pull, but that is the equal and opposite force the ball pulls on the string force the ball pulls on the string according to Newton’s second law.according to Newton’s second law.
If there was an outward force then when If there was an outward force then when the string broke the ball would fly outward the string broke the ball would fly outward and not linearly. and not linearly.

Also knowing that falling object accelerate they Also knowing that falling object accelerate they must have a force acting on them alsomust have a force acting on them also
When an object has a force exerted When an object has a force exerted onon it, that force it, that force must be exerted must be exerted byby another object another object
Newton concluded that that other object is EarthNewton concluded that that other object is Earth This is even the case with the moonThis is even the case with the moon In fact, all object have a force of attraction between In fact, all object have a force of attraction between

ConclusionConclusion Every particle in the universe attracts every Every particle in the universe attracts every
other particle in the universe with a force other particle in the universe with a force that is proportional to the product of their that is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distances between them. square of the distances between them.
